    Menu Click events

    I have written a small program to basically list a submenu in a label array...it can there fore be totally skinnable. Now what I want to do is make this 'virtual' submenu actually functional, ie when you click on one of the virtual menu items it actually performs the correct task to the set hwnd. Is this possible ? at the moment all my program really gets is the caption and the hwnd of the menu and items, is that enough to do this ? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me out here, ive searching for weeks.

    Thanx so much

    Re: Menu Click events

    If you send a WM_COMMAND message to the main window with the lPaream being the menu's command id (use GetMenuInfo API for this) then it triggers a menu click just as if the user had done so.

    Hope this helps,
