How do I add Icon to Shortcut Bar

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

   Sorry - but I just can't figure it out - can you help?

I can see that there is an Icon property but do not know how to associate an imagelist/iconmanager to the shortcut bar and assign the icon ID.

I am using VB6 if that makes any difference.

Thanks
Lee

	Just look at Outlook 2003 sample or any commandbars sample that uses imagemanager.

	I see...that makes sense. However, I have tried your suggestion and am still no further forward. I have ttried using the imagemanager and an image list and neither will allow me to assign an icon to the shortcutcaption.icon property. NEITHER THIS... ShortcutBar1.Icons.AddIcons ImageManager1.Icons ShortcutCaption1.Icon = 1 OR THIS WORKS.... ShortcutBar1.AddImageList ImageListShortcutBar ShortcutCaption1.Icon = 1 Can you give me the complete example of assigning an image list to the bar and then the ShortcutCaption because I just can't get it. Thanks again. Lee

	Sorry, forgot the caption bar icon was of type ImageManagerIcon, try something like this. Set wndShortcutBar.Icons = ImageManager.Icons captionTitle.Icon = wndShortcutBar.Icons.GetImage(100, 16)
