#define INCL_WINMENUS
 
MM_SETITEM
mp1 = MPFROM2SHORT(0, (BOOL) fIncludeSubMenus);
mp2 = (MPARAM) pmi;    /* pointer to MENUITEM structure */
 
An application sends an MM_SETITEM message to set a menu item. The menu
control responds to this message by copying the item definition in the
structure pointed to by the pmi parameter to the menu item with the same
identifier.
 
If the fIncludeSubMenus parameter is TRUE and the menu does not have an item
with the specified identifier, the submenus of this menu are searched for an
item with a matching identifier. If one is found, the definition is copied
to it.
