I am using the most recent ActiveX version of the CommandBars.ocx and I am finding that when I add a drop down box to my toolbar it becomes disabled even when I have not put code anywhere to disable it. I tried putting ComboBox.Enabled = True (where ComboBox references the drop down in my command bar) in my code and that didn't help. I can't figure out why my drop down is disabled and can't seem to enable it either. Anyone have any suggestions?

What identifier you assign to drop down box?

Give me a piece of your code.

Hi Oleg,

   My code is not anything very complex. I have a constant named DATA_SOURCES_DROPDOWN that equals 217. I am using the CommandBars.ocx control on my own ActiveX Control. The CommandBars control placed on my activex control is named cbQueryDesigner. Here is basically what I am doing to create the toolbar....

' m_cbrQueryBuilder is DIM'd here but is actually a private member of the UserControl class

Dim m_cbrQueryBuilder as XtremeCommandBars.CommandBar

Dim objCommandBarCombo as XtremeCommandBars.CommandBarComboBox

Set m_cbrQueryBuilder = cbQueryDesigner.Add("Query Designer", xtpBarTop)

m_cbrQueryBuilder.EnableDocking xtpFlagAlignTop + xtpFlagStretched

m_cbrQueryBuilder.Visible = True

With m_cbrQueryBuilder.Controls

   Set objCommandBarCombo = .Add(xtpControlComboBox, DATA_SOURCES_DROPDOWN, "Data Sources")

   objCommandBarCombo.DropDownWidth = 400

   objCommandBarCombo.DropDownListStyle = False

   objCommandBarCombo.Width = 400

   objCommandBarCombo.Enabled = True

End With

cbQueryDesigner.AddImageList imlToolbar

cbQueryDesigner.VisualTheme = xtpThemeOffice2003

' Then later on in another procedure I am filling the combo box like this

Dim DataSourceCombo as XtremeCommandBars.CommandBarComboBox

Set DataSourceCombo = m_cbrQueryBuilder.FindControl(, DATA_SOURCES_DROPDOWN, , True)

' I have a for next loop that then adds some text items and index values equivelent to

DataSourceCombo.AddItem "name1", 1

DataSourceCombo.AddItem "name2", 2

DataSourceCombo.AddItem "name3", 3

DataSourceCombo.Enabled = True

Set DataSourceCombo = Nothing
