Hya all!
I'm coding a program launcher and I use a loop to add programs to the menu.
I see a lot of guys do this:

AppendMenu((HMENU)wParam, MF_OWNERDRAW, i+1, (const char*)i);

and something like this in a WindowProc function
 if ( 1 <= wParam && wParam < 1+n_MAXITEM ) {
blablbla

This obviously means that the menuitem has been clicked.

I know the i+1 is the ID of the menu item. But when I use this, I can't get
a WM_COMMAND
from the menu? Any ideas?
I always use something like ID_POPUP_PROGRAM1 or something this will work,
but
as you can see this is a very difficult way, and you can't use infinite menu
items.

Any help would be appreciated!!

I am writting something very similar and this suggestion was given to me
and it works very well.  

BOOL CVCToolBarDlg::OnCommand(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
        UINT uID = LOWORD(wParam);    // item, control, or accelerator identifier

        return CDialog::OnCommand(wParam, lParam);

I hope this helps???
