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

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
