How can make the active form to be the active form? e.g when i type on a pane, using the MDISample of the dockpane, highlight on the text it should execute command since its the pane with focus? Is there a way to do this? Regards, Joel. |

Hi team,
Am having a problem here that no one seems to be addressing. Am using you MDIsample for the dock control as an ensample. I type a sample text and highlight it on the Document 1 which is the mdi child. I click on pane 5 (thereby receiving focus) and type the same, and highlight it. demonstrated below: 
i then click on the bold button whose code is: ActiveForm.rtfText.SelBold = Not ActiveForm.rtfText.SelBold result: the text on the dock pane is not made bold. instead text on document 1 is made bold. 
My question is: when i attach a form on a dock pane does it really receive activeform focus? Is there a way i can deal with this problem cause am exposing my forms from dll(handle property) and attaching them dock pane since there is no way dll embedded form can be mdi child? Enviroment: VB6 Any assistance from yu guys will be of help. Regards, JJ ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 13.1 Platform: Windows XP SP 3 Language: Visual Basic 6 SP6 |

Hi,
We can't override ActiveForm property of VisualBasic. it can only return active MDI frame. But you can add some custom property "GetActivePane" and retrieve pane iof it has focus or ActiveForm or not. And use it in your code instead ActiveForm. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |
