Help Pull-Down

CUA guidelines recommend that all application windows with menu bars include a help pull-down menu. The help application menu bar choice and corresponding pull-down menu is defined in your resource file. The following example shows how to define the help pulldown.

MENU IDR_MAIN PRELOAD
BEGIN
    SUBMENU "~File",                           IDM_FILE
    BEGIN
        MENUITEM "~Open...",                   IDM_LOAD
    END

    SUBMENU "~Options",                        IDM_OPTIONS
    BEGIN
        SUBMENU "Size",                        IDM_SIZE_MENU
        BEGIN
            MENUITEM "Small",                  IDM_SIZE_SMALL,   0, MIS_TEXT
            MENUITEM "Medium",                 IDM_SIZE_MEDIUM,  0, MIS_TEXT
            MENUITEM "Large",                  IDM_SIZE_LARGE,   0, MIS_TEXT
            MENUITEM "Full Size",              IDM_SIZE_FULL,    0, MIA_CHECKED
        END

        MENUITEM "~Jumble!",                   IDM_JUMBLE
    END

    SUBMENU "~Help",                           IDM_HELP,            MIS_TEXT
    BEGIN
        MENUITEM "Help ~index",                IDM_HELPINDEX,       MIS_TEXT
        MENUITEM "~General help",              IDM_HELPEXTENDED,    MIS_TEXT
        MENUITEM "~Using help",                IDM_HELPHELPFORHELP, MIS_TEXT
        MENUITEM     SEPARATOR
        MENUITEM "~Product information",       IDM_HELPABOUT,       MIS_TEXT
