EnableMenuItem()

USAGE

void EnableMenuItem(MenuList, MenuNum, ItemNum, SubItemNum, On)

FUNCTION

This routine will enable or disable a MenuItem for you, without you having to have the MenuItem's address hard coded into your program.

It can be used to alter MenuItems in either the drop down or pop up menu lists.

Give it the Menu list and the three numbers that identify the intended MenuItem, and it will find that MenuItem and, depending on the Boolean 'On', it will set or clear the ITEMENABLED bit in the MenuItem's Flags.

If you wish to access a MenuItem that has subitems, set SubItemNum to MENUNULL, or -1, and it will update the MenuItem, rather than one of its subitems.

If you are dealing with a Menu that already installed (with SetMenuStrip), you can call:

(*functions->EnableMenuItem)(window->MenuStrip, MenuNum, ItemNum, SubItemNum, On);

INPUTS



Window	Pointer to the linked list of Menu structures
MenuNum	Index of Menu to search in.
ItemNum	Position in menu of the selected MenuItem.
SubItemNum	Position in subitem list of MenuItem. If not desired, set this to MENUNULL.
On	Boolean flag, TRUE to enable the MenuItem, FALSE to disable it.


RESULT

none (void)
