Thanks for the reply.
I am able to delete the menu if it is only one level deep, but I'm not sure I have the most efficient approach.
When I find the menuItem to remove, I get its parent, a CommandBarPopup control. Do I have to traverse all the controls in the top-level CommandBar, looking for the Control with the matching CommandBar?

I also need to handle hierarchical menus, and I am having trouble traveling up the hierarchy.


For example:
TopLevel
----Level1
--------Level2
------------MenuItem1

When I delete MenuItem1, I want to see if its 'parent' (Level2) is empty, and delete it if it is. Similarly, I want to get Level2's parent, and delete it if it is empty, and so on.
Is there a straightforward way to do this?

Hi,
 
pParent is PopupBar of Control. You need Delete not PopupBar but Control that has this Popupbar as Child CommandBar. so Find it and remove.

Hello,

My application allows users to add and remove menu items via scripting. When all the menu items are removed from a particular menu, I would like to remove the menu.

Currently, I try to a find a menu item by ID, confirm that it is CommandBarButton, then delete it:
pControl->Delete();

Before deleting, I get the control's parent:
ICommandBar * pParent = pControl->GetParent();
// xtpBarTypePopup == pParent->GetType();
long cnt = pParent->GetControls()->GetCount();
if (0 == cnt) {
    pParent->Delete();
}
This call to Delete() crashes.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for any insight...
