Event structure does not capture mouse click event on toolbar activeX control

[frogfrog]

Hi

We have a toolbar activeX control on FP.  It works perfectly on my computer, but on my coworkers deskyop,  somehow the event structure doesn't capture mouse click event.

Any idea?  Thanks a lot for any help.

Hi,

It will be hard to help you without the VI and / or the ActiveX. Did you create this ActiveX by yourself ? Or is it a standard ActiveX ?

It's a standard activeX control.  I attach a simple vi .

thanks  for any help.

You are missing two subVI's.

Hello,

I have a similar problem, in fact, I can insert an ActiveX container. When I right-click on it, I can also choose which component to insert in the container. In this case, a Microsoft Toolbar 6.0. The toolbar loads fine, except that now, in the block diagram view, I am unable to left-click or right-click on the newly created toolbar.

Any ideas?

Your question is not similar at all, so you really should be creating a new thread. I don't understand what you're trying to click on. The only thing that would be on the block diagram is the terminal for the ActiveX container, not the toolbar inside the container.

frogfrog,

Please post the two missing VI's so we can run your code.  Are you distributing the VI as an executable?  Have you gotten it working on any other PCs?  What operating systems are on each PC?

Hi  smercurio_fc,

It is the same problem. Sorry, maybe I didn't explain clearly.  Basically I am unable to click the activeX toolbar. The toolbar just looks like disabled.

Thanks for any help.

I don't understand. Are you dennex?

frogfrog,

Are you unable to click the toolbar on the front panel or block diagram?  Is this when when the VI is running or during edit mode?  If you cannot click the ActiveX control on the front panel in edit mode try drawing a selection box around the control to select it, and then move it.  Please provide as much information as possible so we can narrow this down.
