I am trying unsuccessfully to set the text of a toolbarbutton at runtime.
The button was added to the toolbar.buttons.collection at designtime. Is
there a trick to doing this, or am I missing something? Does the
toolbarbuttons Text property have to be set prior to adding the button to the
toolbar's buttons collection?
Thanks

\\\
Me.ToolBar1.Buttons(2).Text = "Hello"
///

- or -

\\\
Me.ToolBarButton1.Text = "Hello"
///

... work fine for me.

Very strange. That code is obviously what I tried - it did not and does not
work for me. In any case, I have abandoned the toolbar idea and am instead
using a panel of buttons, so the problem is not holding me up anymore.
Thanks.
