MenuItem constructor

[mjb3030]

Why is it that when I do this:

 

With mnuFile
   .menuitems.add("&New", new eventhandler(addressof mnuNew_Click))
End With

 

it works, but when I use the constructor with a shortcut:

 

with mnuFile
   .menutems.add("&New", new eventhandler(addressof mnuNew_Click), Shortcut.CtrlN)
End With

 

I get the error "BC30516: Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'Add' accepts this number of arguments."

That's not the constructor, that's the Add() method of the MenuItemCollection. Try using this instead:

With mnuFile
   .menutems.add(New MenuItem("&New", New eventhandler(AddressOf mnuNew_Click), Shortcut.CtrlN))
End With
