Adding a Dropdown Control to a Command Baar

[Tom Joseph]

I would like to replace one of the command buttons with a dropdown control.
I would like the dropdown control to have several list items, each of which
should have an onAction property.

Here is what I am starting with.

Any help and some example code woud be much appreciated.

Thanks,


Sub OpenCommandBar()

Dim cb As CommandBar
Dim cbb As CommandBarButton

Set cb = Application.CommandBars.Add("Dashboard Controls", _
msoBarFloating, False, True)
cb.Enabled = True
cb.Visible = True

Set cbb = cb.Controls.Add(msoControlButton)
cbb.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
cbb.Caption = "Refresh Data"
cbb.FaceId = 159
cbb.OnAction = "InitializeDataInput2"

Set cbb = cb.Controls.Add(msoControlButton)
cbb.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
cbb.Caption = "Generate Reports"
cbb.FaceId = 433
cbb.OnAction = "ProcessReportSet01"

Set cbb = cb.Controls.Add(msoControlButton)
cbb.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
cbb.Caption = "Print Reports"
cbb.FaceId = 4
cbb.OnAction = "PrintSet01"

Set cbb = cb.Controls.Add(msoControlButton)
cbb.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
cbb.Caption = "eMail Reports"
cbb.FaceId = 258
cbb.OnAction = "CreateAndEmailReports"

End Sub

You omitted the "control"...

Set cb = Application.CommandBars.Add("Dashboard Controls", _
msoBarFloating, False, True)

cb.Visible = True

Set cbc = cb.Controls.Add(msoControlPopup)
cbc.Caption = "Refresh Data"
cbc.OnAction = "InitializeDataInput2"
