 Topic: Trigger a Menu dropdown ...Posted: 19 May 2008 at 12:33am |

Is there a simple way to trigger (from within code) a main menu topic list to drop down (for examples the Files menu/popup)?
Thanks, -Ted

Thanks, Oleg. I thought that might be it, but I seem to have a terrible time getting the syntax right. Could you give me an example of how it would look inside a procedure for the form ... assuming I just want to drop down the a standard "File" set of items (let's say I just have a button on the MDI sample and clicking it should drop down the menu).
Many thanks.
In general, as a newbie, I don't have any problem setting up the Command Bar stuff, but I do have a lot of difficulty modifying it, getting it to respond, or polling it's properties from other procedures or modules. I am not getting the idea of the syntax right -- or I am not defining something correctly. I feel like I have gone through all the examples and they do a good job of showing how to get controls laid out and their appearance set. But they don't seem to have examples of using, modifying, checking, controls etc ... once you are out of the process of just "adding" them in. Can you point me to a good example of these kinds of things.
Thanks, -Ted

Hi,
You want to dropdown a popupmenu item without having to click the menu item, correct ? I don't know your intention why you want to do that but try this:
CommandBars.FindControl(, ID_FILE).Execute
Where ID_FILE is the ID of the PopupMenuItem and will dropdown the menu item
