Hi I am trying to manipulate multiple controls on a worksheet plus
some drawing objects and in the days of XL95 John Walkenbach had a
marvellous "Power Utility Pak" "Object Properties" tool for altering
both the location of objects and whether they were Visible/Invisible.

One of its great features was that it was accessible by selecting the
object and then *right clicking* it. We are now trying to reproduce
this right click ability but cannot find any code on this NG for doing
it.

Can any one, (including John) help?. Mr Walkenbach if you are there
perhaps you could direct us to the page in "Power Programming with
VBA" although its not immediately obvious that the code for this
feature is in the book..

(We are running XL 2000, /XP).

Thanks a million

Charles

Charles,

Here is a simple example you can build upon. I tend to add in the
Workbook_Open event and remove in the Workbook_BeforeClose.

Public Sub addMenu()
removeMenu 'just in case
With Application.CommandBars("Cell"*)
With .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControl*Button)
.BeginGroup = True
.Caption = "Routine1"
.OnAction = "Another"
End With
With .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControl*Button)
.Caption = "Routine2"
.OnAction = "YetMore"
End With
End With
End Sub


Public Sub removeMenu()
On Error Resume Next
With Application.CommandBars("Cell"*)
.Controls("Routine1").Delete
.Controls("Routine2").Delete
End With
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub

For some reason, copying and pasting from Google adds extraneous dashes/hypens
to the code.

This line:
With Application.CommandBars("Cell"*)
should not have that trailing minus:
With Application.CommandBars("Cell")
(a couple of spots)

Hi Bob / Ron

Coping this from this NG post

With Application.CommandBars("Cell"Â*)
With .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlÂ*Button)

Became this in VBA
With Application.CommandBars("Cell"Â*-)
With .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControl-Â*Button)

Copying the VBA and pasting it back in this post the original is back.
With Application.CommandBars("Cell"Â*)
With .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlÂ*Button)

However; the code works great and it completes a menu system
that Ron helped me earlier with. I was just ready to post a question
when I seen this post. I would hope Charles checked his post, it was
just what he ask for.

PS Bob
I tend to add in the Workbook_Open event and remove in Work_BeforeClose.

I favor the activate/deactivate events over the open/beforeclose
events do to the fact that if a user opens another workbook it restores
there setup at that time

Thanks
TK

Bob - I think you have misunderstood me. Your right click menu works
fine when you right click a cell, but we want it to work when you
right click an *object*.

Let us assume we want to move the object to the right in increments of
0.75, as with John's Power Utility Pak. If you right click on it, the
bottom most short cut menu option needs to be your Routine1, (or our
"MoveIt"

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Do you mean that opening a new workbook will lose that menu? If so, it
shouldn't do, only when the host workbook is closed. IF these things are one
workbook specific, I add it to that workbook, if they are generic, I add it
to Personal.xls (such as a menu that I add for my add-ins, and another for
an easier worksheet hide/unhide).

Hi Charles,

The versatility of the object model :-)

The code remains basically the same, just a different commandbar. In this
case, I think it is the Shapes commandbar, not Cell.
Just amend the code and try it.

Bob - I think you have misunderstood me. Your right click menu works
fine when you right click a cell, but we want it to work when you
right click an *object*.

Let us assume we want to move the object to the right in increments of
0.75, as with John's Power Utility Pak. If you right click on it, the
bottom most short cut menu option needs to be your Routine1, (or our
"MoveIt"

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Charles

Hi Bob

That's the one Harlan was talking of the other day
Yes

I believe that Dave see the hyphen in the thread.
But we don't see it in Outlook express

It is just one of the many annoying 'features' of the new Google.
Yes

I send a bug report
Maybe you can do the same

Hi Ron,

Oh that old chestnut. That's the one Harlan was talking of the other

isn't it. I also get that if I paste a worksheet formula from
Google,
but
they are not usually so obvious :-(

It is just one of the many annoying 'features' of the new Google.

For some reason, copying and pasting from Google adds extraneous

This line:

should not have that trailing minus:

Hi I am trying to manipulate multiple controls on a
worksheet
plus
some drawing objects and in the days of XL95 John Walkenbach
had
a
marvellous "Power Utility Pak" "Object Properties" tool for
altering
both the location of objects and whether they were
Visible/Invisible.

One of its great features was that it was accessible by
selecting
the
object and then *right clicking* it. We are now trying to
reproduce
this right click ability but cannot find any code on this NG
for
doing
it.

Can any one, (including John) help?. Mr Walkenbach if you
are
there
perhaps you could direct us to the page in "Power
Programming
with
VBA" although its not immediately obvious that the code for
this
feature is in the book..

(We are running XL 2000, /XP).

Thanks a million
