    Setting Icons in menu

    Is there a way which i can set an icon to a menu item?

    i tried SetMenuItemBitmaps but it works only for bitmaps is there a function for icons?

    Not directly. Follow the instructions under Using Custom Check Mark Bitmaps, To create a bitmap at run time and then use DrawIconEx to draw the icon to the dynamically created bitmap just selected into the device context.
