Is there any way to Disable a ribbonbar tab which, in turn, disables all ribbonbar buttons within that tab? I'm using 10.1.1 with VB6

Created tab like so:

Set RibbonBar = CommandBars.AddRibbonBar("MainRibbon")
RibbonBar.EnableDocking xtpFlagStretched
Set tabHome = RibbonBar.InsertTab(1000, "Home")

Try to disable tab like so:

CommandBars.FindControl(,1000,,True).Enabled = False

But it won't find the tab.

Surely I'm just missing something.

Thanks!

Use Update event to Enable/Diasable controls.

I Know to use the update event but the line:

CommandBars.FindControl(,1000,,True).Enabled = False

isn't even finding the ribbontab. That's the problem.

Hello,

RibbonTab is not control object. Use

RibbonBar.Tab(Index)

property.
