Trigger Dropdown on Button

[casManG]

I have a button on my toolbar which allows a drop down context menu and works fine. The only problem I have is that the button and the drop down portion of the button work independantly from each other. Is there something I can do when the button portion is pressed to activate the dropdown portion?

I could just force the menu open, which I have, but I thought if I could just activate the dropdown portion as if someone had clicked it, that would be cool.

Thank you

try this and please let me know if it works for you:

Me.ContextMenu1.Show(Me.ToolBar1, New System.Drawing.Point(e.Button.Rectangle.Left, e.Button.Rectangle.Height))

Well, That does work, But that is what I already had in there as a workaround. I was hoping to make it actually activate the dropdown portion of the button because it turns a darker color and would look better. I had hoped there were a way to tell the dropdown portion of the button to activate.

Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Thanks
