Dear,

In my firm, we use ranges of ID to identify ControlBarControls depending on which form they are used on.

For example:

100 - 9999 = Menu items on form 1

10000 - 99999 = Menu items on form 2

....

200 000 - 300 000 = menu items on form X

When the id becomes too big, keybindings (CTRL+X, ...) that are added to those ID's do not work and the shortcut text is not displayed in the menu. Is there a way to work aroud that?

The menu items self are displayed correctly. Only the keybindings do not work.

But the ID parameter is declared as a long.

32000 is (aproximatly) the maximum value of an integer. 2 147 483 647 should be the maximum value of a long.

It is possible to create menuitems with an ID larger than 32000, bit it's not possible tho add keybindings to that ID.
