I am using RibbonBar and directly on it I have a checkbox control to "Enable XYZ" and ID_OPTION_ENABLE_XYZ.
I also have a "Options" popup control and a button control there is also "Enable XYZ" and ID_OPTION_ENABLE_XYZ. I thought that if I use same ID (as they are really same) that when I use "FindControl" method, it would toggle the Checked property for both of them. But it only finds one and the other isn't toggled. 1) Is it a bad idea to have same ID? 2) I thought about using a for each loop on the commandbars objects, checking the ID and checked state but I don't think that's very efficient. How do I efficiently find all controls with same ID and toggle them? ------------- Product: Xtreme Suite Pro (ActiveX) version 16.3.1 Platform: Windows XP SP3 (32bit) Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

I think you should be using Actions in this case - check out the Actions sample that comes with the suite. With actions, you can associate multiple controls with a single action, and then enable/disable an action and all of the associated controls will be enabled/disabled accordingly. ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 16.2.6 Platform: Windows XP - SP3 Language: Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |
