RadListBox

[Victoria F]

C#.
I have 2  RadListBoxes.( Assign/Unassign process) 
When I Assign items (add items to the right listbox and remove them from the left listbox).
If Assign ListBox has at least 1 item I have to enable contextMenu or radcontextMenu  for this ListBox. 
So when there is at least one item user can right click and open a response window to be able to edit some details. 

My problem is that I can not assign dynamically contextMenu.
At the end of the code to assign the item I wrote:

if (radListBox_SelectLOBs.Items.Count > 0)
{
  radListBox_SelectITMs.ContextMenuStrip = contextMenuStrip_VF;
}

but nothing happened on the right click.
Menu appears only if I specify in the property of RadListBox (RadContextMenu) at the beginning,and not using the code.
Is there an option to do this from the code?
Thank you,
Victoria.

Evening Victoria,

How about this...

Declare a context menu in the class

private ContextMenu m_MyMenu = new ContextMenu();

Add the menu to the RadListBox and register for the PopUp event

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();
    this.radListControl1.ContextMenu = m_MyMenu;
    m_MyMenu.Popup += new System.EventHandler(this.PopUp);
}

When the popup fires, add the menu item in if there are more than 1 items

private void PopUp(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radListControl1.Items.Count > 0)
    {
        m_MyMenu.MenuItems.Clear();
        MenuItem meniItem = new MenuItem("Click Me");
        meniItem.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.MenuItemClicked);
        m_MyMenu.MenuItems.Add(meniItem);
        this.radListControl1.ContextMenu = m_MyMenu;
    }
}

and capture the click event of the context menu item

private void MenuItemClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    MessageBox.Show("You clicked the ClickMe context menu item");
}

Hope this helps, but let me know if you have further questions.

regards,
Richard

Slightly revised. One line not needed

private void PopUp(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radListControl1.Items.Count > 0)
    {
        m_MyMenu.MenuItems.Clear();
        MenuItem meniItem = new MenuItem("Click Me");
        meniItem.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.MenuItemClicked);
        m_MyMenu.MenuItems.Add(meniItem);
        //this.radListControl1.ContextMenu = m_MyMenu;
    }
}
