Activex property right click help

Let me try to explain my problem again with more detail. I need to right click on an ActiveX property node, an example "FormFields (Index)" a variant, to find out how the value is setup for a drop down box in MS Word 2007. Help for ActiveX does properties do not show up from the context menu, although the property is clear listed on the menu, "Help for Item",  the second string of properties from the left.
I discovered the "Item" is just a number that lists all Formfields in the Word document. Its used to select a Formfield but I was not able to bring up the simple help to inform me of the use.
Don't start ranting duplicate msg please.... An IE glitch prevented me from replying to post http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/activex-property-right-click-help/td-p/1283920 and page wound up creating a new posting....

Hi Richjoh, 
The reason that you are not seeing the help is because LabVIEW does not have the help files for Microsoft ActiveX properties.  LabVIEW includes the help files for LabVIEW properties, but not third party items.  In this case, it would be beneficial if that help menu was hidden.  If you think that this is something that that should be changed in LabVIEW, feel free to make your comments at www.ni.com/ideas.

  • Touchpad Arrow Turns to right click HELP

    I normally use a Bluetooth mouse with my MacBook Pro but, for the last few days, when I use the touchpad the arrow will basically do a command on its own if the arrow or cursor is not moved after about 5 seconds or so. if i leave the arrow on a link in an email, for instance, it will open the link without my pressing anything. if the arrow is just left on the desktop it will open up a dialogue option (sorta like I have done a right-click). It does not do this when i use the mouse, only when I have moved the cursor or arrow with the touchpad. It is VERY annoying, and as it does stuff that i just don't want done! (I had a Dell computer that would do the same thing, and i was hoping i left this issue far behind!!)
    Any advice? Anybody know what I am talking about? My explanation may not make sense. Thank you!

    HI and welcome..
    Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
    Quit Safari (Command + Q) Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Now launch Safari. If you can right click to create a new tab, move that .plist file to the Trash.
    Also, try emptying the Safari cache more often, eithe from the Safari menu bar or Command + Option + E
    And check Safari / Preferences - Tabs. Make sure your settings there are correct.
    I see you are new to Apple Discussions. Please click *My Settings* right side of this window and tell us which Mac OS X (operating system) you have installed. That will create a forum profile for you which will help now and in the future if you need to post for help again. Thanks!

    Hi,
    I would disable the right click.....
    perhaps you can call a javascript function to display a table of options on your jsp with a layer:
    function myOptions( )
    var fullText =      "<table width='278'>" +
         "<tr bgcolor='#FF9900'>" +
         "<td colspan='3'> <b><font color='#000000' face='MS Sans Serif' size='3'>Option1</font></b></td>" +
         "</tr>" +
    "<tr>" +
    "<tr bgcolor='#FF9900'>" +
         "<td colspan='3'> <b><font color='#000000' face='MS Sans Serif' size='3'>Option2</font></b></td>" +
         "</tr>" +
    "<tr>" +
         " <td height='35'></td>" +
         " <td colspan='2' height='35'>" +
         "     <div align='left'>" +
    " <br>" +
    "     <p><font color='#FF0000'>Select option's from above.</font></p>" +
    "</div>" +
         "</td>" +
              "</tr>" +
    "</table>";
    editLayer( fullText, lyr );
    showLayer( lyr );
    editLayer and showLayer will display table on JSP....remeber to call the layer "1yr"
    // Show the visible layer that is passed into the function
    function showLayer( _obj ){
    if ( ns() ){
         _obj.visibility = "show";
    } else {
         _obj.style.visibility = "visible";
    // Write the layer with the text in the parameters
    function editLayer( txt, obj ){
    var doc;
    if ( ns() ) {
         doc = self.document._obj.document;
         doc.write( _txt );
         doc.close();
    } else {
         doc = _obj;     
         doc.innerHTML = _txt;     
         doc.document.close();     

  • I accidentally ran iPhoto Library Upgrader on my Picture folder and now I have to right click on it to "show contents" instead of looking at it in Finder.  Help!

    Help!  I have 2 problems related to iPhoto:
    1:  I accidentally ran iPhoto Library Upgrader on my Picture folder and now I have to right click on it to "show contents" instead of double clicking on it and looking at it in Finder.  I cannot figure out how to fix my Pictures Folder so that I can click on it and view it in Finder, when I double click on it Terminal opens up with this message  "Pictures - Bash 80x24"  and
    Last login: Mon Nov  3 14:00:05 on ttys000

    It will not let me replace or delete the folder...  I got to my files and backed them up, but trying to avoid reinstalling my OS.
    2:  When I try to Upgrade my Library.iPhoto file so I can open it in iPhoto it says I need to finish by opening in iPhoto, but then when I do, it tells me it first needs to be upgraded in the iPhoto Library Upgrader... Vicious circle.  Please, help!  Just trying to recover about 3 years worth of photos...

    Hi!  Thanks for responding!
    I have iPhoto 9.5.1, I am on OS X Version 10.9.5 on a MacBook Pro with 2.66 GHz
    My current "iPhoto Library" file is OK (I can open it with iPhoto), however I cannot access the old one from iPhoto 6 titled Library.iPhoto
    I tried right clicking and choosing the application, it did not work.
    "exactly how did you "I got to my files and backed them up"" - I showed the contents of my Pictures folder, and it opened up the folders in Finder and I copied them to an external hard drive.  In my Picture folder I have several folders of Photos plus the iPhoto Library files (old & current)
    I do have old back ups, but they are from April, and I recently imported 5 months of photos from my iPhone, so the iPhoto Library I copied after showing contents is the one I need.

  • How do you get to the DOS prompt so that you can type in the info to help get into itunes store???  One post said search cmd, right click, run as administrator but where is the search cmd??

    Have been struggling for days trying to get into the itunes store.  Have contacted support with no help.  I have been reading how some have typed something into a DOS prompt and have resolved their issues.  One stated to "search cmd, right click, and run as admininstrator" but where is this?  There was also a post about typing something into the DOS prompt....how do I get to this?  Can someone please help??? SOOOOO FRUSTRATING.  Thanks much...Carrie (Mike's wife:))

    One stated to "search cmd, right click, and run as admininstrator" but where is this?
    In the search field in your Vista start menu, type cmd
    Next, right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".

  • How do I delete a song from my Itunes library? I follow the instructions and right click on the song and click delete from the drop down menu but, then it asks me if I am sure I want to hide this song in Iclouds? I dont even know what Iclouds is?!?! HELP!

    How do I delete a song from my Itunes music library? I follow the instructions and right click on the song and then select "delete" as specified and my info claims at that point it will ask if I want to send this song to my trash bin, but, instead, when I try to delete the song, I get another window asking "are you sure you want to hide this song in iCloud? I don't even know what iCloud is?!?!? I don't want iCloud and just want to get rid of old songs!!! HELP ME!!!

    Short answer:
    Click Hide Song(s), it is what you wanted to do...
    Long answer:
    iTunes in the Cloud is a feature of your iTunes store account that allows you to redownload or stream your past purchases. When you delete a purchased track that is downloaded to your computer (like the first one shown here) you are asked if you also want to hide the song from iCloud. This would remove it from the computer and also stop it showing up with the iCloud symbol as the other tracks from that album (which are not downloaded) do.
    If a track shows with the cloud symbol you can play (stream) it by double-clicking the title, or click the cloud symbol to download a local copy to your library. If you try to delete one of these tracks you get a slightly different message confirming that you want to hide the track. Clicking hide will remove the listing from the library and any other device that shows your past purchases.
    Should you want to retrieve any item hidden in this way at a later date use Store > View My Account > iTunes in the Cloud > Hidden Purchases > Manage.
    To hide all your previous purchases that are not downloaded to your computer use Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

  • My right click is not working. the context menu does not come up and i can no longer drag files/folders. I have checked the mouse and track pad in system preferences and the correct boxes are all checked (with a support member). Please can you help

    My right click is not working and producing the context menu or ability to drag files and folders. I just spoke with a phone support person and we checked that all the mouse/trackpad options for right click were correct and checked.
    Please can you help with this.
    It has only just happened in the last few days.
    Many thanks

    You might want to update your profile so that we can see what model iMac you have and what version of OSX you're running.
    For this question, it might help to know if you're dealing with a trackpad, Magic Mouse, or something else?
    (Until your issue's resolved, you can Control-Left Click to get the right click functionality).

  • Just bought a dell pc with windows 8. on my old pc (vista) i would right click a movie (in itunes format) and say open with itunes and it would play. Now it won't open in itunes and it just CRASHES. HELP PLEASE. is there a glitch with win 8???

    okay not sure how this works so here i go again.
    Okay i bought a dell pc with windows 8 (big mistake) i downloaded itunes and from my external hard drive, right clicked a movie file (in ipad format, because this worked in vista on my old laptop) and it will not go into itunes. And itunes keeps crashing. Is there a glitch with win 8 and itunes ? I never had this prob with vista. I would right click a file and say open with itunes and poof it goes in the library. Please help before i throw this thing out the window! OH newest itunes is what i have installed.

    Take a look at this MBP, a refurbished unit.  Don't let the late 2011 release date put you off.  For about  $500 less than an equivalent 'new' one with similar specifications you get a quad core CPU and excellent graphics.  As Steve359 mentioned, this can be upgraded if the need arises and has the same warranty as a 'new' one
    I would not be surprised that these may actually be 'new' MBPs due to the length of time that they have been replaced by the current generation.  I purchased a 17" model about 5 weeks ago, and a serial number check suggests that it is 9 weeks old.

  • I'm frustrated with the bookmarks. I so long to be able to right click on any bookmark and choose to have them in alphabet order. Would also like for the little icons to go away. Never been able to figure out how to do this the MAC way. Help.

    I am frustrated with the Bookmarks. I want so much to be able to right click and alphabetize the list. It's been a year and I can get my mind around the process that's there. Also I'd love for those pesky little icons to disappear. Help me please.

    After the release of Firefox 29, several people noticed that after using the Customize feature, most items on the right-click menu for the Bookmarks menu on the menu bar became ''grayed out'' and unusable until you closed and started Firefox back up again. That seems to still be a problem for me in Firefox 36.0.4, so if you used Customize, that could be the explanation.
    You still should be able to click and drag bookmarks around the menu even with the broken right-click context menu.
    And if it's easier than restarting, the context menu still works in the Bookmarks Sidebar (Ctrl+b to open/close) and Library dialog (Ctrl+Shift+b or "Show All Bookmarks").

  • Firefox immediately switching to new tab even when that feature is disabled on right-click open in new tab or on ctrl+click a link. Please help.

    Firefox switches immediately to new tab or the immediate next tab if multiple tabs are open, even when the respective feature is disabled, whenever I open a link by -
    1. Right-click > open in new tab
    2. Ctrl + click a link
    Earlier it did not happen like this. It is really very annoying. Re-installation and clean installation of the latest version did not helped.
    And this is happening mainly when I am using Facebook. Earlier it never happened so with Facebook.

    I don't have the divX plug-in and I still have this problem. Why should plug-ins that are not even triggered by the affected pages alter Firefox's behavior. Feels like bad architecture.

  • I right clicked my iPod on iTunes and clicked restore from back up because i thought it would undo my IOS6 update. IT DELETED ALL MY PICTURES (2,000) AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET THEM BACK!!!! Please help me!!!!!

    I right clicked my iPod on iTunes and clicked restore from back up because i thought it would undo my IOS6 update. IT DELETED ALL MY PICTURES (2,000) AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET THEM BACK!!!! Please help me!!!!!

    Well, if you have not backed them up, they are gone.
    Next time, when you have important material in only one place, back it up.

  • I'm running Windows 7 on a Mac, and just downloaded Firefox 6.0.2 for the Windows side. However, my right-click function is not working in Firefox. It clicks on a link instead of bringing up the context menu. Please help.

    This is the only program on the Windows side that has this problem. Windows Explorer and Microsoft Office work just fine with the right-click.

    My scroll also doesn't work in Firefox -- but does in Excel and Word. This has been intermittent for months now. Usually, if I reboot the scroll would begin working again until for no apparent reason it quits again. Now even the reboot doesn't fix the no-scroll problem. I have Windows Vista. I even did a Firefox Update to 9.0.1.
    I don't have that file on my about:config page so this solution won't work for me.
    Thanks in advance for any help!
