after running this code:



Set mnuTools = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls.Add(xtpControlPopup, ID_MENU_TOOL, "Tools")
Set mnuTools = CommandBars.FindControl(xtpControlPopup, ID_MENU_TOOL, , True)

the mnuTools is Nothing. it's, of course, incorrect.

but if I run this:


Set mnuTools = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls.Add(xtpControlPopup, ID_MENU_TOOL, "Tools")
mnuTools.Id = ID_MENU_TOOL
Set mnuTools = CommandBars.FindControl(xtpControlPopup, ID_MENU_TOOL, , True)

the mnuTools will be correct.

I wonder why

The procedure Add won't set the id of the new CommandBar?

would this be an issue?

i don't know whether the description is clear or not.

what i mean is i must set the id of a new CommandBar manually, otherwise the FindControl will return Nothing.

Yes, that is correct, you must manually assign the ID to popup controls.

since the prototype of  Add is:


Public Function Add( _
   ByVal Type As XTPControlType, _
   ByVal Id As Long, _
   ByVal Caption As String, _
   Optional ByVal Before As Variant, _
   Optional ByVal Temporary As Variant _
) As CommandBarControl

after calling Add, the new CommandBarControl's ID should be set automatically by the literal meaning of the second parameter of Add, shouldn't it?

This has been a well known problem since forever.  (Or at least for the past year and a half, based on forum posts.)  I'm really surprised it hasn't been fixed.
