Calling a Menu-item

Classic Servoy
1

Dear all,

in the normal menu you can find via "File/Import/EXCEL a dialog to import from EXCEL.

Question:
Is there a way to call this dialog by command/by button without going to the menu?
Unfortunatly there are no shortcuts…

Thanks for tips, ideas and so on

Hi Ralph,

As this is your first post: welcome to the Servoy Community Forum.

By default Servoy ships the ‘window’ plugin.
With this window plugin you can grab the menubar object and from that you can drill down to the menu and menuitems.
The menuitem has a function ‘doClick’ which will trigger the defined action for this specific menuitem.

I hope this will give you a pointer.
