Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Interop.InfoPath.SemiTrust (in Microsoft.Office.Interop.InfoPath.SemiTrust.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
ReadOnly Property CommandBars As Object
    Get
'Usage
Dim instance As Window2
Dim value As Object

value = instance.CommandBars

Object CommandBars { get; }

Property value

Type: System.Object

Implements

Window.CommandBars

Remarks

The CommandBars collection can be used only by fully trusted forms. If used by a form that is not fully trusted, the CommandBars collection will return a "permission denied" error.

Important

This member can be accessed only by forms opened from a form template that has been configured to run with full trust using the Security and Trust category of the Form Options dialog box. This member requires full trust for the immediate caller and cannot be used by partially trusted code. For more information, see "Using Libraries from Partially Trusted Code" on MSDN.

Examples

Note

The following example requires a reference to the System.Reflection namespace.

BindingFlags flags = BindingFlags.GetProperty | BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly | BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance;

// The CommandBars collection returns only one of the objects 
// that implements an IDispatch interface.
// To perform checks and allow COM-like calls,
// you must create a wrapper by casting to the ObjectWrapper class.
ObjectWrapper commandBars = (ObjectWrapper)thisApplication.ActiveWindow.CommandBars;

int commandBarsCount = (int)commandBars.InvokeByName(
           "Count",    // prop
           flags,
           null,      // arguments
           null);     // Culture

thisXDocument.UI.Alert("There are " + commandBarsCount.ToString() + " Command Bars");

// Either of the following two lines will work
object[] args =  new object[] {1};  
// object[] args =  new object[] {"Standard"};

// This object is outside the wrapper - this gets a .NET object

object commandBarItem = commandBars.InvokeByName(
           "Item",         
           flags,
           args,      // arguments
           null);     // Culture

thisXDocument.UI.Alert("Got the 'Standard' command bar");

string commandBarName = (string)commandBarItem.GetType().InvokeMember(
           "name",
           flags,
           null, 
           commandBarItem, 
           null);

thisXDocument.UI.Alert(commandBarName);
