place BuiltIn control on commandbar with VB

Hello experts,

In Access 2000 when I do customize a commandbar thrue the menu I can click on the 'commands' tab next I can place a form on my commandbar by drag and drop.

When I check in VB the type and Id and parameter I get the following results:
Type = 1,  Id=1837, Parameter="myFormName"

Then I try the following code:

commandbars("Mybar").controls.Add type:=1, id:=1837, parameter:="myFormName"

I get a runtime error: automation error

When I place a not builtIn-control then it works OK, but as soon I use id:= it does'nt work.

What I'am doing wrong

Thanks a lot,

I've rewrite my code and it works fine for me.

But it is still strange you can't use the buitlin id's when you want add a builtin control
