Toolbar button

[Mark Goldin]

I have a toolbar on my form.
How do I know what button was clicked?

In your ToolBar's ButtonClick event add code like this:

private void buttonClick(object sender,
System.Windows.Forms.ToolBarButtonClickEventArgs e)
{
switch(toolBar.Buttons.IndexOf(e.Button))
{
case 0:
SomeCodeToRunForButton0();
break;
case 1 :
SomeCodeToRunForButton1();
break;
case 4 :
SomeCodeToRunForButton4();
break;
}
}

And of course, you are talking about web toolbar?

 

[DalePres]

What Web toolbar? I'm not aware of one that comes as a part of the .Net
Framework. Can you give more information on what you're using?

Is there some reference you had to set or add to your project to see that?
I don't have it in my toolbox, in my intellisense, and I don't find it in
the framework documentation.

What version of framework are you using?

Ok.. I got it.....Microsoft namespace, rather than System.

So now today has become a good day. I learned something new.

And now that I got it... it only took a few seconds of researching to learn
more about the control before I came across this page that shows how to
determine the button that was pushed:

That link shows figures from a more indepth article at:

Hope that helps, and thanks for the lesson!

I am having that error:
The type or namespace name 'ToolbarButton' could not be found (are you
missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
