View 2 Replieshow to create a contextmenu for system tray icon vb? Where can I find an example of it? I am building a service with a system tray icon to start pause and stop it however I don't seem to be able to display the contextmenu on click event. Do I need a form for the context menu?
View 1 Replieshow to create the contextmenu near the system tray icon that i've created? the current contextmenu will always "run" to certain position. How to do that? especially the second parameter of the following:
Me.contextMenu1 = New System.Windows.Forms.ContextMenu
Me.menuItem1 = New System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem
Me.menuItem2 = New System.Windows.Forms.MenuItem
Initialize contextMenu1
[Code]...
Me.contextMenu1.Show(Button1, New Point(0, 0)) .NET not allow the control to be the notifyicon, so i added a button.hOW to make sure that the contextmenu always firm on one position , ie, at the system tray icon that i've created. Once i click on the icon, it will show this contextmenu.
I'm building an control interface for a system that consists of 1-4 modules. In my interface, each module has its own control set, grouped in a groupbox. I only want to show the control groups for the modules that are actually connected and hide the rest.
This is easy to do with the visble property.
I also want all of the groups to be stacked vertically in the UI such that when one is hidden, the rest below it shift up into its place as if you deleted a row in a table. It needs to be able to come back just as easily.
I created a vb.net application that reads a data file (SQL table) and creates contacts and groups from this data. If I run this application and point the Contact folder to my local Outlook folders, the application runs fine. It creates about 550 contact and 10 groups. My problem is when I go to run the application against a public folder that am the "owner" of with full permissions it will run fine until it hits items 250 and then I get a COM error.

i would like to create a small tool that filters new and old facebook groups, i am almost finished, but one part isnt working the filtering here is the source code, grabbing groups works but checking if they are old or new doesn't, even though it should. There is one more feature not working where it filters the members size it is not grabbing the text it should (instead of grabbing the amount of members its just grabbing something from the beginning of the source code) [code]

I am in the process of converting VB6 applications to Dot Net. I am using VS2008 to do the conversion.I need to change some of the converted VB6 menus from MainMenu to ContextMenuStrip. Is there an easier way of doing this then recreating them?
View 1 RepliesI've done a lot of work to customize the template for ContextMenu in my app, and it worked great as a "right-click" popup window.To my enormous surprise, when I wanted to add the same ContextMenu to a button to work as a kind of "drop-down" menu, it reverted back to the default template. It is really, really, weird, considering it's the exact same control I'm using, and when I right-click the button the template is the one I customized, but when I left-click it(and open it with ContextMenu.IsOpen = True) it uses the default template? I'm pretty baffled right now, and hope that this isn't one of the (many) quirks with WPF that will require me to write hundreds of lines of XML code to fix something that shouldn't even be an issue in the first place.

I'm actually trying to help another member over at CG with this problem, on this thread url...And I'm clueless as to what to try anymore.The thing is, we're trying to add a Context Menu on a Menustrip. If you were to right click on any menu on the System's Start menu, you'd see, that you can right click any menu item, and do whatever with it.I have sourced some code, and eventually got a sample worked out - the problem is, it only works with top level menus, not submenus.[code]If you were to run this code, you'd see that only right clicking Testing ( the top menu ) works. Can anyone see any reason why this doesn't work with Submenu items

For when it is being used with only buttons, i need a way to 'scroll' through the items in a ContextMenu.

I have been a programmer for 36 years (COBOL,FORTRAN, etc.) but I am new to VB.NET. I am writing a random quote generator program to teach myself VB.NET. On a context menu of a NotifyIcon I have some main menu items, one of which is "Choose random quote files". When I mouse over the main menu item the sub-menu opens. I can click on one of the filenames that has been loaded from a directory to include (or exclude) it from the population. As soon as I do, the context menu closes. I want the user to be able to click on more than one file name before the menu closes.
