Problem with Commandbar Actions!

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello everyone, long time no see!

I have ran into trouble when I was trying to use a single button to represent three buttons such as "Refresh, Stop, and Go to".

Originally, I was able to ensure the button's action and icon changed for the refresh and stop functions. But I want it to actually turn to the go button whenever the commnbarscombobox's text equals something other than the active windows' Web browser.locationURL but when I try to implement this in the commandbars_update(), I tells me that the object and/or variable isn't set when in fact it is.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or if there is a better way to implement this?

Thanks and regards in advanced~!~

	In the UpdateEvent you get a reference to the control, not to the action. So you can set the controls state. If a control with the same id is placed on different locations, you get an update-event for each control. If you want to use actions, you must first enable it. You can do this in the designer or by code. With actions, you can access them by id and all associated controls will be changed. The missing Object may be a problem in your code.
