Popupmenu is not working.

[Mc Brain]

Plain and simple. Popupmenu does not work. I'm writing an usercontrol and none of the Popupmenu works. Does anyone have any clue about it?

from user control you'd have to specify Parent.MenuName:

'label is located directly on the user control
Private Sub Label1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    If Button = vbRightButton Then
        PopupMenu Parent.mnuFile
    End If
End Sub

from user control you'd have to specify Parent.MenuName:

'label is located directly on the user control
Private Sub Label1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    If Button = vbRightButton Then
        PopupMenu Parent.mnuFile
    End If
End Sub

But the menu belongs to the usercontrol itself.

I have no problem using the following code inside a usercontrol

Private Sub UserControl_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    If (Button And vbRightButton) = vbRightButton Then
        UserControl.PopupMenu mnuPop
    End If
End Sub

    End If
End Sub

Me neither... but on some conditions, the popupmenu won't work. What's more, I have an usercontrol (EFMMask) with a popupmenu that works ok. When I include this usercontrol (EFMMask) into another... no popupmenu works. Not even the EFMMask's menu.

I can't reproduce your problem. I've created one usercontrol with a menu, and put that in another usercontrol that also has a menu. When I slap the other control on a form and run the project I get both popup menus depending on where I click.

can u post your code..

[Mc Brain]

I'm trying to reproduce it in an easier project (without all the resize and event's code9... but I cannot reproduce it.

[Mc Brain]

My guess is that the system does not have enough memory to popup the menu... because it's working on a simpler project.

I doubt that, because if that would be the case you wouldn't be able to display popup menus in any application. There must be something else in your code that suppress the menus.

I'm running out of ideas. Do you have anything?

Not without seeing your code. Can you upload your project?

[Mc Brain]

I can't!! Even the project I did to code and test the usercontrol seems to be working correctly.

However, when I use this Usercontrol in a form which is loaded through a "bigger" Usercontrol, does not work!
