Thread: Checkmarked menu items

Hi, i was wondering if anyone could point me to a tutorial or give a crash course on how i can get checkmarked menu items to work. I'm using VC++. I'd like to know how i can enable/disable an option just be RECLICKING on the same item instead of being stuck in the same position. This kight also tie in to how to make the checkmark appear/disappear.

Thanks.

look for help with


//********************h file
afx_msg void OnUpdtateMyItem(CCmdUI* pCmdUI);



//************************cpp file

ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI(IDC_MYITEM, OnUpdateMyItem)


void CMainFrame::OnUpdtateMyItem(CCmdUI * pCmdUI)
{
pCmdUI->SetCheck( bMyCondition == TRUE ? 1 : 0 );
}

Actually, i'm doing this through the API (not MFC) using C.

Thanks anyways

use GetMenu() to get the menu's handle. then use CheckMenuItem() to check a certain item.
