Hi,

how can I disable the context menue? I will show my own context menue when the cell is in edit mode.

Is this possible?

TRY VIEW THE CELL STATUS(TRUE OR FALSE) AND WITH A IF CALL YOUR MENU OR NOT!

EXAMPLE
Private Sub wnd_RowRClick(ByVal Row As XtremeReportControl.IReportRow, ByVal Item As XtremeReportControl.IReportRecordItem)
On Error GoTo ControlError
If Item.Editable = True Then
Call menu_Rclick
End If
Exit Sub
End Sub

GOOD LUCK!

No, it don`t works. When the cell is in edit mode (cursor is in cell) the reportcontrol not raised the events 'MouseDown' or 'RowRClick'.

When you edit a text cell -- a regular Edit box is active and right click on it shows its own menu. Another edit controls (like combo box) show another context menus. It can't be customized.

Hi mlatona,

Just for fun, I poked around with the ReportControl (11.1) to see if I could disable the context menu. sserge's comments that the ReportControl uses a standard Edit box made me think that it should be possible to subclass it.

It was a bit tricky (and I made it trickier on myself by overcomplicating the subclassing code), and it relied on an ugly timer hack, but I did get a proof of concept to work. You can download the OCX, a test project and all the source code from here:

Of course you can modify it to suit your needs as much as you want. No warranties or guarantees are given with this code. Have fun.

Thank you for your example. It`s great.

To Codejock. Can you add property 'EditHwnd', who give us the handle from the edit textbox?
