i made a tool bar with a drop down menu on one of the buttons.
the problem is, i used a menu right and i tried clicking the link through the menu and it worked. but when i went to go try it in my tool bar, in a beside the button, with the drop down...nothin'. the form won't appear get what i'm sayin?
i'm using code

        Case "Set Home Page"
            PopupMenu mnudropdown

Actually, no. Try using more punctuation?

First : make sure your case statement is correct.

Second : Smart ass people on the forum usually don't get much help. Tone down a bit. This forum is a great help, but we must understand the problwm in order to help fix it...

Are you talking to me or him? I don't know how I made it harder to understand the problem, so I hope you're talking to him.

All I did was state that I didn't understand what he was saying by answering the question, then suggested a method at which he could be clearer in asking the questions.

In no way was I being a smart ass. Try making your posts less contradictory so that we may better understand the purpose of what you're trying to say.

Good day.

The Hobo : To him.

Well, I feel like an ass now, then.

You can't make a popup menu from a toolbar menu.

You can make a popup menu off almost any event. Clicking on a toolbar icon would be one of them.

[edit]Sorry, I didn't catch the last word in that sentence. You be correct[/edit]

Are you saying that when you click on menu items nothing happens or that when you click on it, the menu doesn't appear?

[RoBskEwL]

lol it was my first time making a drop down menu beside a button on a tool bar. i added a drop down
but one thing i made it so it said Set Home Page
but where would i add the show form code?
i can't add the case to the toolbar button
do i add it to the Toolbar1_ButtonDropDown
or the Toolbar1_ButtonMenuClick
and how would i make the case?!
with Select Case Button.Caption ?

[Hack]

All buttons on a toolbar have a Key. The toolbar has a built in event called the ButtonClick. In this event, you code what happens when you click on a button on your toolbar. Example

Private Sub tbToolBar_ButtonClick(ByVal Button As MSComctlLib.Button)
    On Error Resume Next
    Select Case Button.Key
        Case "New"
            mnuFileNew_Click
        Case "Open"
            mnuFileOpen_Click
        Case "Save"
            mnuFileSave_Click
        Case "Print"
            mnuFilePrint_Click
        Case "YourButtonKey"
            PopUpMenu mnudropdown
     End Select
End Sub

i attached what i'm talking about
i'm making a browser
but the code just don't seem to work
of course i know about
Case "Set Home Page"
HomePage.Show

i tryed that on the Toolbar
this is what i did

Private Sub Toolbar1_ButtonClick(ByVal Button As MSComctlLib.Button)
    Select Case Button.Caption
        Case "Go Back"
            On Error Resume Next
            WebBrowser1.GoBack
        Case "Go Forward"
            On Error Resume Next
            WebBrowser1.GoForward
        Case "Stop Loading"
            WebBrowser1.Stop
        Case "Refresh Page"
            WebBrowser1.Refresh
        Case "Home Page"
            WebBrowser1.Navigate ReadKey("HKCU\Software\kEwL Progz\Zone Explorer\Home Page")
        Case "Set Home Page"
            HomePage.Show
        Case "Zone Log In"
            WebBrowser1.Navigate "http://zone.msn.com/services/login.asp"
        Case "Zone Games"
            PopupMenu mnuzonelinks
    End Select
 
End Sub

FYI

WebBrowser1.Navigate ReadKey("HKCU\Software\kEwL Progz\Zone Explorer\Home Page")

It's easier to use:

WebBrowser1.Navigate "about:home"

[RoBskEwL]

yea but i made it so u can set your own home page so it navigates that when ever u click home it goes to the registry

[RoBskEwL]

anyone!?

[Lord_Rat]

I see that -- now.

I didn't actually look at the value you had there.

I think it's time to post your code (or a sample of it). I would need a form to work from.

[RoBskEwL]

i'll send u a p.m. cause i don't wanna go over the bandwith

[RoBskEwL]

still any help!?
i don't really wanna post my whole project

[RoBskEwL]

[RoBskEwL]

CoUpLe DaY *BuMp*

[RoBskEwL]

yet another bump!!!!!!!

[cafeenman]

why haven't you posted your code?

[The Hobo]

I believe you need to add this to your code:

Private Sub Toolbar1_[b]ButtonMenuClick[/b](ByVal ButtonMenu As MSComctlLib.ButtonMenu)
  Select Case ButtonMenu.Text
    Case "Set Home Page"
      HomePage.Show
  End Select
End Sub

It's a seperate event for buttons and menu's on the toolbar.

[RoBskEwL]

heh i thought so.
i wasn't quite sure witch one it was
thnx alot!
:-)
