VS 2010 Running Menu Items From With VB?
Nov 10, 2011
I have a form which has a menu bar. This bar then has sub-menus i.e. the top menu is passwords and the 2 sub menu's are change password and delete password.This works fine when the user selects the menu item by clicking with the mouse
Private Sub ChangePasswordToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles ChangePasswordToolStripMenuItem.Click
PasswordForm.ShowDialog()
End Sub
What I want to do is under certain conditions run the menu item automatically from within the code.

I have a Windows form with a menu strip (the built-in one, nothing custom).I want to add a new list of items to one of the current menu items programmatically (no problem, done that).The new list of items I am adding is unsorted, but I want them to appear on the menu in alphabetical order.

I've got a menu with checkable items that appears on two different forms, and I'm making sure the two forms always have the same check states, so Form1 would have something like this:
Private Sub mnuWarnings_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mnuWarnings.CheckedChanged
'when one of these is checked, the other should also be
[code].....
But that yields this error:
An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: The form referred to itself during construction from a default instance, which led to infinite recursion. Within the Form's constructor refer to the form using 'Me.'
There definitely aren't any references to Form1 within Form1.It only occurs when I use CheckedChanged--if I use mnuWarnings.Click, it works fine. And it only occurs in Form1 (the main form); CheckedChanged works fine on Form2.

I want to use property bindings under application settings to store settings for my program. However I have run into a problem. For some reason the checked property is not binding to drop down menu item's checked state. The binding works for text boxes and other controls. I have tried to bind both using the checked property, and checked state property. Auto check on click for the menu items are set to true.
Anyone have any recommendations in getting the app-settings property binding to work without the need to manually set that info and manually run My.Settings.Save?

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
For Each item In ListBox2.Items

I have combed these forums and the 'net and can't find an answer to my specific problem. My menu strip disappeared (after deleting a small secondary form within my project). I therefore created a new strip and while recreating the menu items realized that the original menu items are still present, showing in my properties list. I have checked my design file as well and the original menu strip is definitely gone but the original menu items are there. I don't have many items so I would have no problem just deleting the original ones but I can't see them to delete them! I have checked and they are all set to visible. I have also moved everything on my form to see if it is behind anything else.

I am wanting to create a menu based on items in my MS SQL database i have 3 tables
FormTbl
FormID - Int Eg (1)
FormName - nvarchar(50) Eg (Form1)

I can get the form names to be populated in to the menu and can open it my question is how do i set where the menu items will be placed. Eg File with FormHierarch 0 will be the very first one. Exit with FormHierarch 0.1 will be the very first one under File
Private Sub Main_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim menu As New MenuStrip()
Dim dst As DataTable = User.MenuItems(Me.ToolStripStatusLabel1.Text)

My visual studio 2005 has been running great up till now The menu items in the menu toolbar display exactly as follows:File File Edit Edit View View File File Edit Edit View View Tools Tools Tools Tools Window Window Community Community Help Help Window Window Community Community Help Help
Error List is displayed as follows:(I've excluded the icons)0 Errors 0 Errors 0 Warnings 0 Warnings 0 Messages 0 Messages The standard toolbar images are also displayed in 'duplicate'
This is before I open a project and visual studio is on the start page. The 'duplicates' do not go away even when a project is open.When project is open, Solution explorer displays duplicate images as well
I've tried all the following but still cannot get it to display normally. Restored my computer to a time when it was working ok. Full scan on my computer with AVG premium which includes spyware etc (No viruses , etc found) All software is updated fully

I have the following linq statement to go through a dropdown menu's sub items and get what items are checked: vb Dim UnselectedItems = From xItem As ToolStripMenuItem In tsiSelectObjects.DropDownItems Where TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem AndAlso CType(xItem, ToolStripMenuItem).Checked = False
I get this error tho: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripSeparator' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem'. As you can probably guess i have ToolStripMenuItems and separators in there
However the AndAlso should short circuit in the case where the item is not a ToolStripMenuItem and it doesn't seem to be doing so (as TypeOf xItem Is ToolStripMenuItem=false in this case)?

I recently installed WSP Builder on a machine with Visual Studio 2008 already installed.Quite expectedly, the WSP Builder sub-menu appeared (and still appears) under the Visual Studio 2008 Tools menu.Having then installed Visual Studio 2010 Professional and installed WSP Builder a second time, I can not seem to find the WSP Builder sub-menu anywhere under any of the Visual Studio 2010 menus.Can anyone throw some light on this "missing menu" problem?

I am using Visual Studio 2008 (with focus in VB.NET). I want to add tooltip to the menu items in the menus I have created.Now I know that menu items have a property call tooltip and if I type text there, tooltips are displayed. But I want to use tooltip control for that because it gives me flexibility of changing colours or adding a heading to tooltips.I was able to bound tooltip control for controls on forms like button, textbox etc. But how can I achieve the same for menu items. Basically I want that my tooltips for menus have a heading also and If I want I can change colours.

I am able to have checked menu items show the variables that I need to show, but they don't uncheck themselves unless I go back and click them. I want to have only one checkmark on a country at a time...is there any way? I've tried if...elseif , but that doesn't work....example below (If I only want Mexico checked and NOT United States, but both are checked still).
If MexicoToolStripMenuItem.CheckState = CheckState.Checked Then
UnitedStatesToolStripMenuItem.CheckState=CheckState.Unchecked...
End IF

I downloaded a nice menu control from this webpage [URL]. I added the control to my toolbox, and dragged and dropped it onto my form. The problem is I can't see any way of adding menu items. There is a property named items, but that doesn't seem to add menu items to the menu. There doesn't seem to be any other property that would add the items. Any way of adding code to add the menu items.

I am adding some functionality to a custom ContextMenuStrip control that I have created. One of the first things that I need to do is increase the mouse hover time on the submenu context items. The following code works perfectly for the main context items, but will not fire my mouse hover event for submenu items.I believe the problem is that I need to set the tme.hWnd handle to the submenu. If that is the case, how do I get the handle of the submenu as it is opening?
Friend Const WM_MOUSEMOVE As Integer = &H200
Friend Const WM_MOUSELEAVE As Integer = &H2A3
Friend Const TME_LEAVE As Integer = &H2

I have to create an application that will dynamically add a menu strip with menu items to a form(ie NOT dragged and dropped onto the form) in Visual Basic. The menu strip should be created in the Form_Load event handler. I have to use a TextBox for user input. If the user enters information into the TextBox and clicks on the Add Button, the text should be added to a ComboBox control.A Menu should then be created that must be added to the menu strip dynamically.

I have two menu items from which I choose the interface language of a program (English or French).I want either of them to be chosen, both can not be chosen at the same time. I went over the properties of ToolStripMenuItem object and saw three properties that are confusing (Checked, CheckState and CheckOnClick), how can I mix them so that I get that functionality, I mean that when I check the French, the English gets unchecked and vice versa.
