I have a CXTPControlComboBox-derived control on a toolbar. Right-clicking on the control brings up the toolbar's standard context menu (i.e. the menu with the names of the toolbars and the Customise... option). For my control I'd like to show my own context menu instead, a little like the edit control brings up a Cut,Copy,Paste menu. I suspect this is simple to achieve, but right now I can't figure it out. What steps do I need to take to have my control respond to the correct messages?

Hi, You can override void CXTPCommandBars::ContextMenu(CXTPToolBar* pToolBar, CPoint point) or catch WM_XTP_TOOLBARCONTEXTMENU in CMainFrame and update CXTPPopupBar* pPopup (lParam). See this method in sources. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Thanks Oleg  . I've just stumbled across InitCommandBars which looks promising.I don't suppose there are any plans for some material aimed at novices (a book, for example) is there? It's like looking for a needle in haystack sometimes with the help files.
