Click Item In Listview Then Show That Item In Combo As Index = 0
Hi guys,

I have a listview (lvwUserPunchedOut) that is populated with records in a database (persons first name in one column and last name in the second column), what I am looking to do is if I select a persons name by clicking on it in the listview on frmMain, and then bring up frmSearchCriteria, i would like to show that selected name in the combobox as default (cboEmployee.ListIndex = 0) on frmSearchCriteria (the combobox is sorted = True and is also populated with first name and last name of the person)

How would this be done? Hope I make sense. Thanks in advance.

Click Event On A Menu Item
I have 2 forms... one a MDIForm with a menu and the another mdichilt.

In the MDIform I have

Code:
Private Sub mnuIndividualSpinsTypeIn_Click()
frmNewSpins.Show
End Sub

What I want to achieve is create some buttons on the other form (a customized control panel) that i should add it to the right of my mdiform, as a task panel and have the same features as some menu items.

For example I have a button that i want to do the exact thing as the mnuIndividualSpinsTypeIn does on click.
I tried to call the click event function from the second form, but it doesn't work... how can I do this?

Code:
Private Sub imgNew_Click(Index As Integer)
Select Case Index
Case 0:
frmMain.mnuIndividualSpinsTypeIn_Click
End Select
End Sub

How To Detect Item Chosen In A Right Click Context Menu?
When you right click on a textbox, you get the cut,copy,paste, and delete context menu. How can I detect which of these choices was selected?
I need to create a text validation on what action was taken, but validation only happens when you move off the textbox. So if a user should close the app or refresh the app, I can detect what action was taken and validate it.

Listview Item Click Grrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay I have a list control on a form. I fill the list view with files and subdirectorys in a folder. Fairly straight forward

when a user clicks on a subfoder it clears the listview and then shows files and subfolders of that folder (sound familiar ) however it now has somehow activated the mousedown event on the first item in the list and as soon as you move the mouse it drags it all over the show. Then if you click to deselect it.. it fires of my click event again on the item.

How can I stop this from happening

PS I tried putting item.selected = false at the end of the code in the item click event but becuase for a subfolder it clears and refills the listview I just recieve an error

HELP PLEASE

Hi,
I have a list box which holds several list items (logs). I want to right click on the individual list items and select them (which only works with left click) and then show a popup menu.
The list item must be selected because the popup menu would have commands specific to the 1 file. E.g. delete log

How do I accomplish this?

Adding A Custom Right Click Item To The Web Browser Control's Pop Up Menu In VB6
Somebody else asked this same question regarding .net but I'm using VB6 and the Browser control so hopefully someone can give me an answer as well.

Does anyone know how to create a custom right click menu item to the web browser control in VB6? What I want to do is add a menu option that is enabled when a user right-clicks on a link in the browser that starts with a common URL string. For example, let's say I want this menu item to be enabled ONLY when the link goes to a URL starting with http://www.vbcity.com/forums/ so it would be enabled if one right-clicked on a link to http://www.vbcity.com/forums/post.asp?method=reply&tid=52321 but not to http://www.vbcity.com. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Thanks,

Capturing A Double-click On A ListView Item
How would I go about detecting double clicks on ListView items? I've looked at the DblClick, ItemClick and Mousedown events, but it seems the only way I can effectively do it is detect a single click and then use a timer with a short interval and wait to see if another click event occurs within the interval (very long-winded, in other words). Come on, Windows uses it all the time, there HAS to be an easier way...

How To Activate Context Menu For Listview Item
I'd like to create a context menu that works like the one in Windows explorer.
I.e. when you right-click on an item
the listitem under the cursor should be selected
and a popupmenu should be desplayed.

So far it looks as if the Click event is triggered, no matter whether the left or right mouse button is clicked. (I need left-clicks for another purpose).
I tried trapping the MouseDown-event, but then I don't know how to select the item under the cursor (HitText returns Nothing).

Any help greatly appreciated.

Add Menu Item To System Menu Of Excel Imported Form [SOLVED]
I'm trying to achieve above 2 items but can't find out how. I've searched this forum already but also can't find anything relevant so am hoping that some of you might be able to kick me in the right direction.

I'm creating a combined VB6 and excel application. Basically VB6 controls excel. The forms used are imports from existing excel applications where I didn't feel like recreating them all over again. Part from that, the excel tab control is way better and easier to use then the VB6 one.

Progress timer:
When starting the program I want to show a progress timer because the program needs to initialize many items and arrays used. I thus created a simple progress timer which depending makes certain pictures visible which form a simple progress bar. The timer used is the VB6 timer option since there's nothing relevant like that from excel. This works well in itself but the problem is with display of the timer. During start it shows the form on which it was created but the timer only starts working after all has been initialized which basically defeats its purpose. Does anybody have any idea how to conquer this one.

Add item to top left window menu:
I want to add a About option to the top / left menu of my program window, the one also containing the minimize and maximize options. I've seen it done in other programs and since it is the only menu item I need I would prefer to do it this way also. I can't however find any information on how to go about this. Hope that someone can give me a push in the right direction for this one as well.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Best regards,

Remove Item From Menu And Add Code To Dynamic Menu Items
Hi.
I build my menu dynamically from a recordset.

Code:
While Not listTypes.EOF
Load mnufiles(mnufiles.UBound + 1)
With mnufiles(mnufiles.UBound)
.Caption = listTypes.Fields(1)
.Enabled = True
.Visible = True
.Checked = True
End With
listTypes.MoveNext
Wend

What happens is that i've got this menu, by default with one item (the first).
I wan't to remove it because it doesn't matter anymore after loading fields from DB.
How can I do this?

Another question:
How do I associate code to the dynamically generated menu items?
Thanks.
