Question With Windows Menu API

Hey Guys,

I have a Win32 C++ application that uses the CreateMenu/AppendMenu/SetMenu API to dynamically make my drop down menus during runtime - yeah, I coded this the hard way.
I was asked to place some spacing in between some of my drop-down menus and I have no idea how to do this.
In other words, I have two consectutive drop down menu items on the top-left of my window, and I want to create another one all the way on the top-right.
Without going to "Owner-drawn" menus, is there a way to do this.
I tried using the seperator bar several times, but that didn't help.

Try to use SetMenuItemInfo and MFT_RIGHTJUSTIFY.

I assume you are trying to do an old-fashioned help menu? Try putting a \n or \t (I don't remember which) before the &Help. That will right justify the Help item.
