Determining which "mode" excel is in
I am using VSTO to develop a C# addin for Excel.
I have several commands in the ribbon that I do not want to be available if the user has double clicked on a cell and is entering text. How can I disable my buttons when the user is in either edit or enter mode? (in the same way the ms alignment, styles etc buttons are disabled) Also, is there any property I can use to discover the mode excel is in? I have tried the application.ready property but it isn't what I'm looking for. |

Determining which "mode" excel is in
Alice,
Whilst such functionality is not available from a VBA point of view, I have seen advise from MS to check Application.Ready, although it seems it may not function correctly. This always returns True in VBA as it cannot run in Edit mode, so I can't it test it now. Otherwise, you can test if the menu item FileOpen is enabled. NickHK "Alice Graham" wrote in message ...

Testing the FileOpen status sounds good to me.
