** i have only 1 button and dropdown menu button is associated with it..**

Private Sub Command1_Click()
'Set hell = "Hello"          '''' Hello is the name of button on which drop menu is associated
Call Toolbar1_ButtonDropDown(hell)
End Sub
 
Private Sub Toolbar1_ButtonDropDown(ByVal Button As MSComctlLib.Button)
 
End Sub
 
Private Sub Toolbar1_ButtonMenuClick(ByVal ButtonMenu As MSComctlLib.ButtonMenu)
Select Case ButtonMenu
Case "kOiz"
MsgBox "OK"
End Select
End Sub

ButtonDropDown is an event which occurs when the user clicks the dropdown arrow on a toolbar button. Calling this event, as you are trying to do will not cause the dropdown menu to display (in fact it will probably cause an error).

So what is the solution
if I want to do it from
command1 click

Could you use Popupmenu?

'something like
Private Sub Command1_Click()
PopupMenu mnuFile
End Sub

I tried to figure out how to get the menu to drop down in code ages ago but could never get it to work at all. Maybe there's some way, through subclassing or something to send the appropriate windows message to the button, but I don't know. Why don't you try asking in the API forum.

Good luck & let us know if you figure it out.

because i think it is better in VB6 forum ..

And that's why I suggested (about two weeks ago) that you try asking your question in the API forum.

shArp
how can i shift my thread ...?

[pnish]

I'm not sure how to move the thread (other than ask a moderator). Just start a new thread in the API forum and maybe include a link back to this one.
