Topic: Setting checked status of checkbox menu item

In VB6, I've created an Xtreme menu and added a checkbox menu item to one of the items

AddControl .Controls, xtpControlCheckBox, ID_VIEW_STATUSBAR, ""

Where ID_VIEW_STATUSBAR is a global constant.

In code I want to set the checkbox status/value/checked property. I've tried a number of different approaches (see below), but with no luck (Object variable of with block variable not set).

CommandBar.FindControl(ID_VIEW_STATUSBAR).checked = True
CommandBar.ActiveMenuBar.FindControl(ID_VIEW_STATUSBAR).checked = True
CommandBar.ActiveMenuBar.Controls.Find(ID_VIEW_STATUSBAR).CHECKED = True

How is this meant to be done?

Thanks
Stefan

Hi,

Set last "Recurse" parameter to True.

.. but I don't recomment use FindControl. Use update handlers like all our samples.
