Hello again,
I am programmatically creating ToolStripMenuItems and I have it all working except when I assign it text. I first pass a path to the PathEllipsis function to make it fit in a smaller space and then assign the return to the Text property.
My problem is that when I step through the code and check values I get correctly something like this:
.Text = "C:\Documents and Settings\...\asdf.txt"
But when I look at the menu it shows this:
"C:\Documents and Settings\...\asdf.txt r2\older3\folder4\asdf.txt"
where it first displays the shortened path followed by what's left of the full path.
I have no idea where it is even getting the full path because I never pass it that. Any ideas?
