Background color and text color in menu

bende.. #1 / 4	Background color and text color in menu Hi, Does anybody know how to change the background color in a menu. Also, I want to set up a menu so that the background color behind an item and the text color of the item will change when the user mouses over it. Anybody have any idea of how I could do this? Thanks, James Bender Sent via Deja.com http://www.--*.com/ Before you buy.

My quick search of MSDN for "owner draw menu" finds there is sample code in the CTRLTEST MFC sample. -- Scott McPhillips [VC++ MVP]
