Change popup menu captions at runtime (ModifyMenu)

Author	Message
nos.. #1 / 6	Change popup menu captions at runtime (ModifyMenu) There seems to be no problem in changing pulldown menu captions at runtime, but popup menu captions refuse to, eg AfxGetMainWnd()->GetMenu->ModifyMenu( 0, MF_POPUP \| MF_STRING, ... , "test" ); MSDN states the 3rd parameter has to be a HMENU in this case (GetMenu()->GetSubMenu(0)->m_hMenu) but this does not even match the declaration of ModifyMenu() which requires an UINT and ends up in a compile time error. Anybody, any ideas? Martin Koeck --- spam prevention: please reply to forum only

I know I have to do that but I'm not getting that far, because I do not know how to pass the 3rd parameter to ModifyMenu(). Docs say it needs a HMENU but the prototype says it needs a UINT... Any help is appreciated

Keit #4 / 6	Change popup menu captions at runtime (ModifyMenu) Martin, I am using it (not to change the main caption though), and am passing the UINT of the menu item.

But for a popup (like the topbar) you need to pass HMENU, according to docs, and this does not work for me. Martin
