Windows 7 Product Key Ribbon Customization Fillin

[englishg9o]

In the previous post, I showed you how to create a simple customization to close the currently open object. Continuing along the lines of adding object helpers to an application,Purchase Office 2010, we'll add two dropdown lists to a customization to work with forms. The first will list all forms in a database and the second will list the open forms in an application. Start with the XML for the customization. For readability, I've left out the button created in the previous post.





label="All Forms"
imageMso="CreateFormMoreForms##############"
sizeString="AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
getItemCount="OnGetItemCount"
getItemLabel="OnGetItemLabel"
onAction="OnSelectItem">

label="Open Forms"
imageMso="CreateFormMoreForms##############"
sizeString="AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
getItemCount="OnGetItemCount"
getItemLabel="OnGetItemLabel"
onAction="OnSelectItem">






Add this customization as an entry in a USysRibbons table in the database and set the Ribbon Name property of the database.
The customization shown here defines three callback routines used by the dropdown: getItemCount,Windows 7 Ultimate Key, getItemLabel, and onAction. These callbacks are used to determine the number of items in a dropdown,Office Professional Plus 2010 Key, the label for a single item, and when an item is selected respectively. We're going to write one callback to cover both controls, starting with OnGetItemCount. We'll tell the dropdown to either display the number of forms in the database using the AllForms collection, or the number of open forms using the Forms collection.
Public Sub OnGetItemCount(ctl As IRibbonControl, ByRef Count)
' set the number of items to the number of forms in the database
If (ctl.ID = "ddlAllForms") Then
Count = CurrentProject.AllForms.Count ' Total number of forms
ElseIf (ctl.ID = "ddlOpenForms") Then
Count = Forms.Count ' Number of open forms
End If
End Sub
Next, create the OnGetItemLabel callback:
Public Sub OnGetItemLabel(ctl As IRibbonControl, Index As Integer, ByRef Label)
' set the label
If (ctl.ID = "ddlAllForms") Then
Label = CurrentProject.AllForms(Index).Name
ElseIf (ctl.ID = "ddlOpenForms") Then
' for open forms,Office 2010 Home And Student Key, use the Caption property of the form if set
If (Len(Forms(Index).Caption) > 0) Then
Label = Forms(Index).Caption
Else
Label = Forms(Index).Name
End If
End If
End Sub
Now,Windows 7 Product Key, add the OnSelectItem callback that is called when you choose an item in the dropdown. Here, we'll open the currently selected form.
Public Sub OnSelectItem(ctl As IRibbonControl, selectedId As String, selectedIndex As Integer)
If (ctl.ID = "ddlAllForms") Then
DoCmd.OpenForm CurrentProject.AllForms(selectedIndex).Name
ElseIf (ctl.ID = "ddlOpenForms") Then
DoCmd.OpenForm Forms(selectedIndex).Name
End If
End Sub
Re-open the database to try it out and open some forms. When you go to the Object Helpers tab, you should have something that looks like this:
