MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / July 2005Copy image from form to toolbar
Hi, How can I copy a picture I use with a button in a form to a button on a toolbar? Background: I use Office XP Dev to create dll and I don't want to use the built-in faceID but use my own created pictures. / Ulf Ulf Nilsson was telling us: Ulf Nilsson nous racontait que : > Hi, > How can I copy a picture I use with a button in a form to a button on [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > I use Office XP Dev to create dll and I don't want to use the built-in > faceID but use my own created pictures. A fast way would be to insert the picture in the Word Document, select it, do CTRL-C, then access the toolbar button properties through the customize menu, then, from right clicking on the button, do "Paste button image". Unless you meant programmatically...

OK, there are two ways of putting a custom button with your own image onto a toolbar. 1. You have a dummy toolbar which you keep invisible acting as a storage place for all your custom buttons, and then use the Copy method of the CommandBarControl object to copy it to some other (visible) toolbar. 2. You get your image into the clipboard and then use the PasteFace method to apply it to the button. I'm not aware of any other methods.

How do I add my own images on the buttons? I know how to do it with dot-files and that way does not apply with dll-files. How do I copy an image from a button in a form to the clipboard? Copy/PasteFace does only apply to CommandBarButton. My question is about forms. / Ulf > > Hi, > > Yes, I do mean programmatically.

TO do that, you must have the bitmap available somewhere. I do not think you can get it from an already existing userform button. Once the userform is created, you cannot extract the image from a control... well, at least I have never seen it done. > How do I copy an image from a button in a form to the clipboard? > Copy/PasteFace does only apply to CommandBarButton. My question is > about forms. and toolbars as stated in your subject line: "Copy image from form to toolbar" I think you are going to have to use Jonathan's idea about keeping a toolbar around as a source of button images. > / Ulf > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] >> Keep your VBA code safe, sign the ClassicVB petition >> www.classicvb.org SignatureSalut! _______________________________________ Jean-Guy Marcil - Word MVP jmarcilREMOVE@CAPSsympatico.caTHISTOO Word MVP site: http://www.word.mvps.org Hi Jean-Guy and Jonathan, I almost gave up finding any solution to my problem, BUT have found the following solution (in a two years old document). I think I did not explain my problem in a understandable way for you. '***On startup Dim cbToolbarOffice As Office.CommandBar Dim picUpdate As IPictureDisp Set picUpdate = stdole.StdFunctions.LoadPicture("C:\Temp\Update.bmp") Set cbToolbarOffice = appHostApp.CommandBars.Add(Name:="AV", _ Position:=msoBarTop) '***Buttons on the toolbar Set cmbUpdate = cbToolbarOffice.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton, _ Parameter:="AV_Toolbar") With cmbUpdate .Style = msoPicture .Caption = "&The List" .Picture = picUpdate .TooltipText = "Show the list" End With Instead of "FaceId", I used "Picture" and it works. Thanks both of you for your advice and patient. / Ulf > Ulf Nilsson was telling us: > Ulf Nilsson nous racontait que : [quoted text clipped - 46 lines] > >> Keep your VBA code safe, sign the ClassicVB petition > >> www.classicvb.org Hi Jean-Guy and Jonathan, I almost gave up finding any solution to my problem, BUT have found the following solution (in a two years old document).
