Hold A Contextmenu Sub-menu Open?
Jul 26, 2009
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.

I know it's doable, I've tried searching Google and on the forums... but I don't know how to add one to the menu items. I have it working on the menustrip, but not on the menustrip items.

i want to be able to open IE/FireFox/Google and the like, and when i right click in a text box on a webpage i can click my email so that it places the email address straight into the box instead of typing it in. in other words i want to integrate a ContextMenu into the already system context menu. I think i am shooting above my belt but just need a start as to where to start. Ie: Service, Background Worker, Windows Form?

This is going to be hard to explain but oh well.I have a form with a menu. When I hit option one, it opens another form (form2) inside that same form (mdiparent). When I hit X on form2, then try to open it again from the original form with a menu thru the menu, It says it cant access a disposed object. Here is the code: Form1:

i have to open different forms thru menu. Whenever i am opening new from the current form should be minimized and new form should be visible and when closing the new form the old one should be viewed again. First level of menu to new form works fine but when i am using form to another form minimize works fine but i need to view in normal mode again fails to view. How can i do this?
Main.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal [Which is not working]
i am using this code to view. To minimize i have used Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized control.

not open on mouse click . It works if I use Alt+Hot Key. But I want to open the Child window menus on Mouse click like it opens the MDI menus.

I am using a toolstripDropdownbutton on the toolstrip to populate the
menuItems.The toolstrip is on the customtaskpane of the window.
Problem comes when the focus is on the customtaskpane, user opens a dropdown menu and without selecting any menu from the dropdown click on the other part of the window. The dropdown remains open and even the user switch to other window it remains open and does not hide. It only hide when user click on the dropdownbutton itself.
Note : I had set AutoClose property to Flase

I am making a program that is in need of labels changing and showing depending on what the user clicks on a file Dialog.
Everything works fine except for that when I change the labels, it uses the entire file path, and I ONLY want the file name. How would I be able to get JUST the file name?

If cmOptions.Visible Then
Return
End If
I have a refreshing process that updates a listview every ten seconds. If the context menu is open for a selected item it should return and not refresh?

Currently developing an automation tool to test new desktop OS builds at work. Need to be able to open menu items on toolbarwindow32 windows (main menu of explorer windows). Now this requires retrieving information of all the buttons on the toolbar, obtaining the button ID of desired menu and sending a WM_COMMAND message with the ID. I'm having trouble retrieving button information.Now im using openprocess, virtualallocex to allocate virtual memory in the target process, and then sending the TB_GETBUTTON message with a pointer to the allocated memory then reading out the result. Allocation and the send message works fine but reading the processmemory back out is failing but not returning an error code, getlastwin32error returns nothing either.
<StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)> _
Public Structure TBBUTTON
Public iBitmap As Integer[code]....
As mentioned above, the read process memoery call fails, the return value is -1 The documentation states it returns 0 for fail, non zero for pass. Wondering if the problem lies in incorrect use of types in pinvoke calls or the struct tbbutton is incorrect, or my use of a pinned pointer is wrong,or whether I need to use adjusttokenpriviledges to ensure I have rights.Though I'm running under admin and examples similar to this don't use it.
Relevant documentation
Virtualallocex
Read Process Memory

I have a ContextMenu attached to a tray notifyIcon and I already have it on the form in design mode. If I look at it in design mode I can see evereything that I have on the main pop-up context menu. What I am trying to do is add to one of those choices programatically. Worked fine in VB6.I am reading in a list of filenames from a directory and want to place them as menu items in the 2nd level of the context menu.

I have a combobox and I want to disable to contextmenu. I tryed button1.focus() when the right mouse button is pressed on the combo but it doesn't work (it makes the focus and then the menustrip appears), I also put a msgbox but that's not a solution.Maybe something when the form is loaded? or globally disable the right click ability....
