Multiple MRU Lists

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello,

I have been using other tutorials in VC++6.0 to use multiple MRU lists, (http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/w-d/doc_view/mrumostrecentusedfilelist/article.php/c3297), however when it goes to update the MRU Menu, 

Code:

void CRecentFileList::UpdateMenu(CCmdUI* pCmdUI)
{
    ASSERT(m_arrNames != NULL);

    CMenu* pMenu = pCmdUI->m_pMenu;
    if (m_strOriginal.IsEmpty() && pMenu != NULL)
        pMenu->GetMenuString(pCmdUI->m_nID, m_strOriginal, MF_BYCOMMAND);

    if (m_arrNames[0].IsEmpty()) // There are items in the array list,
    {                            //  so it skips over this if-statement
        // no MRU files
        if (!m_strOriginal.IsEmpty())
            pCmdUI->SetText(m_strOriginal);
        pCmdUI->Enable(FALSE);
        return;
    }

    if (pCmdUI->m_pMenu == NULL) // But m_pMenu always ends up being null, 
        return;                  // and it doesn't actually add the MRU files 
                                 // to the menu bar list.

    for (int iMRU = 0; iMRU < m_nSize; iMRU++)
        pCmdUI->m_pMenu->DeleteMenu(pCmdUI->m_nID + iMRU, MF_BYCOMMAND);
  ............
}

In the MRU list on the menu bar, there ends up being one item which I can highlight and click on, but it has no name.

I have searched the forums, and I have found a similar request here:

however the files that were provided are no longer accessable.

Thanks
