It can be useful in some cases because of its Action event, which will let you pull values from other controls as opposed to the PopupMenu, which must have values when it opens. Anyway, I'm currently working on a fairly large project. I need to use BevelButton's MenuValue (equivalent to PopupMenu's ListIndex) to find out what the user has chosen on the menu. But whatever I choose, the MenuValue is -1. In fact, there's nothing wrong with my button. For example, LR has the following example. Code: Dim s as String Dim i as Integer Dim last as Integer s="January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September," _ +"October,November,December" last=CountFields(s,",") Me.caption="Month" Me.captionalign=0 //flush left Me.hasMenu=2 //menu on right For i=1 to last me.addRow NthField(s,",",i) Next If I start a brand-new project with this code installed in BevelButton1's Action event and click on PushButton1 with the following code, it will give me the right index value. Code:Msgbox Str(BevelButton1.MenuValue) But if I bring this set of controls to my current, large project, clicking on the Push guy regardless of BevelButton1's menu will give me -1. Nothing works on my current project as far as BevelButton's MenuValue is concerned. BevelButton's MenuValue is so unpredictable like Drawer Window. But I don't find problems if I search this place for 'BevelButton MenuValue.' I can't believe I've wasted more than 2 hours for this. Any suggestions?
