 Topic: Disabling menu itemsPosted: 27 April 2007 at 6:57am |

Hi,
I have an action i shouldn't be running when it's running already, and i want to gray an item in the menu after selecting it. I do set the menu this way: if (GetCommandBars()->SetMenu(_T("Menu Bar"), IDR_MAINFRAME) == NULL) return -1; I tried GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar()->GetMenu() to access the CMenu and operate with the items, but GetMenu returns null... GetCommandBars()->GetMenuBar()->GetControl(index) it disables the submenu but i can't find a way to access items in the submenu from there... What is the proper way to remotely enable/disable a menu? Thanks in advance |

Hello,
Use update handlers to enable/disable items.
see ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI in MSDN.
