Hi Honza,

What host application do you mean? What Office version do you have installed?

It does not matter. I have Windows XP and MS Word 2003, but this same problem I saw on other operating system and other MS Office. I have czech version Widows and MS Office.

Hi Honza,

I can expect such behavior in Word 2000 only because the Office 2000 Object Model has the only way to draw a button image and this way is by means of the clipboard. But it shouldn't appear in Word 2003 because here there are some other methods to pass an image for the button. Please contact me directly we will try to fix the problem.

Hi,

i am having the same problem with Word 2000 on Windows XP.
In Word 2003 it works fine.

Is there any workaround?

Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

The problem exists in Office 2000 only. At the moment our code backups and restores simple clipboard data like text, image, rich-text, etc. In future we are planning to support all clipboard data types but currently you can use buttons without images for Office 2000 only.

I must comment two lines in your code (in unit adxAddIn)

1) if Owner.COMAddInClassFactory.GetHostVersion(Owner.HostType) = 9 then S.Save; (in procedure TadxCommandBar.ReconnectControls;)

2) if COMAddInClassFactory.GetHostVersion(HostType) = 9 then S.Save; (in procedure TadxCOMAddInModule.InternalAddCmdBar)

Now is format OK. Is it good solving?

Yes, it is possible. You can determine the Office version in the OnAddInInitialize event handler and if it is 9, clear the glyphs.

It is ok for the moment, in future releases we will correct the procedure.
