Collapsing Word Menu
I have got an issue with programatically closing / collapsing the word menu.
Here is what I am doing... I have a Windows forms based application developed in C#. I have an user control within the form. I create the Word application object and a word document. I open a .doc file and get the window handle to the word Document using PInvoke (FindWindow). I set the user control as the parent window to the handle I got above. So I am able to see the Word document in the use control. Now when I click on any of the menu items (say for example, on File or Edit or View...), keep the menu open / expanded and click on any other application running from the task bar and click on my application again - my application is not getting the focus. I suspected that the menu opens a new window which has obtained the focus and when I switch back the menu window has the focus and not my application. I have tried the following: 1. Tried to subclass (using NativeWindow) the menu (MsoCommandBar and "MenuBar") using FindWindow. This way I tried to close the menu window by posting a message. I did not get any messages on menu click. After Googling I found that it is not possible to subclass an unmanaged window in managed window. Can you please help me with the solution? TIA Enn |
