How do I disable or enable a button on the toolbar using code? 2. How do I populate a dropdown menu in the toolbar? Thanks.

Access the ToolButton by Toolbar.Item (by index). If you don't know the index of the button you want to disable, compare the ToolButton caption property to find the right one. The Language Reference gives this example of handling MenuItems under the ToolButton page... just make sure your ToolButton Style = ToolStyleDropDown or ToolStyleSeparateDropDown. And then assign a menu to DropDownMenu property. Code:DropDownMenuAction(item as ToolItem, hitItem as MenuItem) Select Case hititem.Text Case "Grand Blanc" MsgBox "You chose Grand Blanc from the "+item.Name+" ." Case "Flint" MsgBox "You chose Flint from the "+item.Name+" ." Case "Bad Axe" MsgBox "you chose Bad Axe from the "+item.Name+" ."
