CONTEXTMENU

[Stever1975]

I know how to add menuitems: contextMenu1.Me nuItems.Add(men uItem1)
But how do you put an event handler at the level of contextmenu that
which tells you which item has been clicked.
The reason I want to this is a want to link all the menuitems to the
same function, and that function is going to take menuitem.text as a
parameter.

thanks

If i understood correctly, that must be what you're looking for:

Private Sub ContextMenuStri p1_itemclick(By Val sender As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.Windows. Forms.ToolStrip ItemClickedEven tArgs) Handles
ContextMenuStri p1.ItemClicked
MsgBox(e.Clicke dItem.Name.ToSt ring)
End Sub

Adiitionaly,

Or you may want to get item's text instead of item's name, then do
this;

Private Sub ContextMenuStri p1_itemclick(By Val sender As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.Windows. Forms.ToolStrip ItemClickedEven tArgs) Handles
ContextMenuStri p1.ItemClicked
MsgBox(e.Clicke dItem.Text.ToSt ring)
End Sub

Hope this helps,
