View 2 RepliesI have an INI file that contains several of these following entries.The Section names are all labled ASSET_CONTROLS_#.[code]The "Name" field should be added to the ContextMenuStrip control as a ToolStripMenuItem.If there is a value in "SubMenuNames" in the INI file, the ToolStripMenuItem created from the "Name" field, should have a DropDownItem created under it. I have separated multiple SubMenuNames with a SemiColon, so a loop would be used to create the separate menu items.Command and Parameters are to be used with the Process.Start function when the Menu Item is clicked. What is the best way to code this? I have been trying to do the event handling for the menu items for hours now and can't get it right. I basically want to call a procedure and pass the "Command & Parameter" values to it to use the Process.Start function.[code]

I have a ContextMenuStrip and a ListBox. I have the context menu connected to the listbox. The menu has two items, Select All and Deselect All. I want to select/deselect all the items in the listbox when a button is clicked. I have done this before for a CheckedListBox but cannot remember how.
View 7 RepliesI'm trying to figure out a way to put a text label at the top of a context menu strip. But as far as I can tell, the only options are "MenuItem", "ComboBox", "Separator", and "TextBox".I reckon I could use a MenuItem for this if I had to, but I think a (non-clickable) label would look a lot more professional.
View 7 RepliesWell the context menu strip is the box that appears when we right click during run time if i'm not mistaken. I was trying to make it run but during runtime when i right-clicked in the form nothing happens. I'd like to know if there's a way to make the program run.

How to open a link with the right mouse button in the webbrowser
We use the ContextMenu ?
I have a webbrowser control that has the contextmenustrip control in it. I would like to right-click on an image and have the contextmenustrip tool copy the image url to the clipboard. I have code that is able to copy text from the webbrowser control to the clipboard and paste, but I would like to be able to copy the image url to the clipboard so that it can then be pasted wherever.Here is the code that I have that is able to copy text and past it:
WebBrowser1.Document.ExecCommand("copy", False, vbNull)
TextBox1.Paste()
The code that I have provided above doesn't copy image urls to the clipboard.

View 4 RepliesHow can I assign a context menu strip to a listbox item and not the listbox itself?
View 1 RepliesBackground Story: My program contains a form and 3 buttons (Add New, Delete, Edit...etc), and it works perfectly. Recently, I decided to add menuStrip, since it helps end-user to work faster. So, I put the menu strip coding.
However.....Sometimes, it works normally. But sometimes it works very strange.
Strange 1. When I chose the "Add New" item in the menu, the Add New Form will be showing up, and then I clicked on the Cancel button in the Add New Form. The Form kept showing up repeatedly. But sometimes, it works normally. (Note: Add New Form's Cancel button contains one line simply coding, it's "me.close")
Strange 2. When I chose "Delete" item in the menu, the MsgBox showing up (since I coded it and it's a warning message to end-users), but the MenuStrip KEPT showing up, so the MenuStrip overlapping the MsgBox. (I expected the MenuStrip disappear in this situation)
Is some codings I have done incorrectly?
Here below is the coding:
CODE:
Visual Studio 2005. Is there a way to determine which menu item is hi-lited in a ContextMenuStrip?
For example: I associate ContextMenuStrip1 with TextBox1.ContextMenuStrip1 contains 5 items with names:
Item1ToolStripMenuItem
Item2ToolStripMenuItem
Item3ToolStripMenuItem
Item4ToolStripMenuItem
Item5ToolStripMenuItem
A sub-menu is created with Item3ToolStripMenuItem that contains 5 items with names:
Item3aToolStripMenuItem
Item3bToolStripMenuItem
Item3cToolStripMenuItem
Item3dToolStripMenuItem
Item3eToolStripMenuItem
As the menu is navigated is there a way for the program to know which of the 10 menu items is hi-lited before a click event occurs?
I've done this many time before, but for some reason I can't get it to work this time.I'm trying to get a ContextMenuStrip associated with a DataGridView. I've defined each to the form and in the properties of the DataGridView I've set the ContextMenuStrip property equal to my ContextMenuStrip name (cmsDictionary), defined the onClick event code, but when I run nothing happens.
The program was originally code with a dynamically added context menu but it was popping up all over the place and I wanted to remove that and just let the grid manage it.
I am changing the content menu strip of the control to my menu strip but nothing happens.I can see my menu strip in the rest of the form but dhtml edit control does not react to right click.
