Custom Properties
 

I have added an ImageList and Treeview to a userform. I would normally right click on the ImageList to access the custom properties page and add the required icons. However, when I right click on the control the Custom Properties menu is not displayed. Does anyone know why this is occurring?

Custom Properties
 

David,

did you check there's a valid reference to the control's library..?
.. depending on version the ref s/b like
Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 (SP6)

Custom Properties
 

hmm...

you're not confusing VB6 with VBA?

in VB6 you go straight to the properties bag.
in VBA you need to click (Custom) in the Properties pane.

Hi,

Yes, the library Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0 is referenced.
To make sure, I've also re-registered the library in \\System32.

Custom Properties
 

as i said..

in VBA you should get the Properties option in the context popup.

if you click that if sets the focus to the properties window and selects
the control. (and opens the prop window it necessary)

then in the properties window ..
select the line with (custom)
double click THAT.

FAIK that's how it's always worked in VBA...
(still think your confused with VB6)

No that's just the problem, when I right click I should have the
'Custom' option but I only have the generic 'Properties' option. All
very odd!

Just one other question...........! Now that I've populated my ImageList I want to bind it to my TreeView control, however, when I access the ImageList combo on the Property page for the TreeView my ImageList is not listed, it has only one entry in the combo, the default <None?!

David, you'll have to bind at runtime

assuming the listimage contains an image with the key "logo"
this works for me:

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
With TreeView1
Set .ImageList = Me.ImageList1
.Nodes.Add , , "node1", "oops", "logo"
End With
End Sub

Guess what....I'm now getting an 'Invalid Object' error message! Here's the code I've added:

With trvMain
Set .ImageList = Me.ImageList1
End With

Help!!?!!

the ME keyword will only work in object modules.
(sheet code, userform etc)

so it's important to know WHERE your code is located

does trvMain exist?
is it a variable or a control?
does imageList1 exist?

if it's in a userform.. WHEN do you load it?
e.g. in which event..
has the form been initialized
has the form been activated
has the treeview been populated ??


hard to debug.. from a 3 line snippet :(
