How to access "my" toolbarbuttons from outside the main form
-
VB.NET 2005 I have some toolbar buttons on my "main" form that i would like to access from another form Somehow, I have not been able to figure it out ... Inside the Main window I can use
DriveEnable.pushed =true(where DriveEnable is the name of the actual button in the collection) and that works (of course :-O ) In my module I'm usingMain.Drivenable.pushed =true.. but it does not work (no error either - just nothing happens) I have set all "possible" properties of the toolbar tool / button(s) to Public - doesnt seem to help me ..:mad: Whats the missing link ? -

EG calling the function in your module from the main form dim oModule as new Module oModule.CallFunction(me) Public sub CallFunction(oFrm as Form) oFrm.Drivenabled=true end Sub
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH
