EnableOffice2007Frame = True and MSGBOX

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   If I set EnableOffice2007Frame equal to True for a Commandbar in a VB6 form and show a MSGBOX then the drawing of the nice Office2007 frame disappers from the form and instead the standard form frame is shown. This looks a little wierd. Is there a work-around for this?

Btw. I am using XtremeSuite ActiveX version 11.2.2

	At some point in your app, you've probably set the caption of your form. Replace it with SetWindowText. Took me a while to figure that one out myself, too

	You are absolutely right I change the caption of the form when a new file is loaded to show the title of the file. I will go right back and replace it with SetWindowText API instead :) Thank you for your help! It worked like a charm.

	Thanks for the SetWindowText tip ... I was using ribbon.RedrawBar to repaint the ribbon, but you could still see the standard title bar for an instant ... SetWindowText works perfectly! Thanks
