I have been able to create toolbars with ComboBoxes etc. and can populate them in Designer but I need to populate the ComboBox in code. Should be simple. Can anyone help?
Many thanks

Hello,
After you load designer file, find this combo:
CXTPControlComboBox* pCombo = (CXTPControlComboBox*)pCommandBars->FindControl(...);
and fill using pCombo->AddString method.

Oleg, I have it working partly. But I am unable to set in initial entry for the Combo Box. I get errors when using Methods that I would expect to work.
Thanks again for your help.
Dim pCombo As CommandBarComboBox
Set pCombo = CommandBars.DesignerControls.Find(, 1036) pCombo.AddItem ("Default") 'Works! pCombo.AddItem ("Profile1") 'Works! pCombo.AddItem ("Profile2") 'Works! pCombo.ListIndex = 1 'Method 'ListIndex' of object 'ICommandBarComboBox' failed 'or
pCombo.Text = "Default" 'Method 'Text' of object 'ICommandBarComboBox' failed Debug.Print pCombo.ListCount 'Works! |

Hi,
you wrote in MFC forum, so I gave you MFC answer.
for ActiveX instead of CommandBars.DesignerControls.Find
use CommandBars.FindControl

Sorry for the confusion. I will try to be more careful in the future. Now, how do I initialize the combo box with a selection. Nothing seems to be provided to do that. The box always comes up empty until somethng is selected via the mouse etc. I want it to come up with the entry that was there the last time the application was closed.
Many thanks |
