Thread: DataGrid Popup Menu options

DataGrid Popup Menu options Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Is there a way to disable popup menu items via scripting? I have a datagrid with custom popup menus options that I have created. I also have a global variable being set in the AXFormChange sub-routine that determines if the user has Read-Only or update capabilities for this particular tab. I was wondering if there was a way for me to find out what the global variable is set to and then based on that value enable or disable the popup menu options.

I am having problems reading the value of the global variable as well. Any suggestions for what I would like to be able to do??

To read the global variable I use something like this:
gVariable = Application.GlobalInfo.Item("globalvariablename")

If you want to disable popup menus entirely you can do something like this:

If gVariable = "ReadOnly" Then
DataGrid.PopupMenu.Enabled = False
Else
DataGrid.PopupMenu.Enabled = True
End If

I am not on my work computer so I can not pull up actual code examples - so these are from memory and I might be wrong in the exact syntax.

Logged into my work computer and found this example for setting individual popup menu items:

If gVariable = "ReadOnly"
DataGrid.PopupMenu.Items(0).Enabled = False
Else
DataGrid.PopupMenu.Items(0).Enabled = True
End If

You can then enable or disable the individual items.

Also about global variables, you can use this line of code to see if the global info was defined:
If application.BasicFunctions.GlobalInfoExists("globalvariablename") Then
Your code here...
End If

Hope this helps.

I am trying to disable popup menu entirely for users other than "Admin", So I did:

If Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentUseriD <> "ADMIN" Then
DataGrid.PopUpMenu.Enabled = False
Else
DataGrid.PopUpMenu.Enabled = True
End If

However, the menu is still displayed

! Any idea anyone?
Note: I have 5 items in the menu, add, edit, delete, copy, move

The second post by Ted actually clarified this, as a generic DataGrid.PopupMenu.Enabled does not work - it doesn't give you enough granular control over individual items in the popup menu.

One other thing that is important to verify is how your popup menu is put together. If the first three items, add edit and delete, are actually part of the EditOptions property rather than the popup menu property, then you'll need to use this:


       DataGrid.EditOptions.ShowAdd = (Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentUseriD = "ADMIN")
       DataGrid.EditOptions.ShowDelete = (Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentUseriD = "ADMIN")
       DataGrid.EditOptions.ShowEdit = (Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentUseriD = "ADMIN")

For the popup menu, whether you have only the last two items (copy and move), or all five, you need to use this format:


       DataGrid.PopupMenu.Items(0).Enabled = (Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentUseriD = "ADMIN")
       DataGrid.PopupMenu.Items(1).Enabled = (Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentUseriD = "ADMIN")

You've been missing the Items(x) - where x is the index of the popupmenu item. This should help you with disabling the menus.
