How to delete menu from my application and create and insert another menu. I would like to have two menu resources ( For example IDR_MENU1, IDR_MENU2), and I want to "step" between them dinamically, without exiting the programm. Actually i've already posted similar question about "multilanguage problems", and the menu is the last problem i have:).

your menu is a popup menu or a mainfram menu

CMainFrame header

CMenu m_menu;

HMENU SetNewMenu(UINT nMenu);

CMainFrame body

HMENU CMainFrame::SetNewMenu(UINT nMenu)
{
// Load the menu from the resources
m_menu.LoadMenu(nMenu);
m_menu.LoadToolbar(nMenu); // if you will need a toolbar also

return (m\_menu.Detach());

}

Code that sets menu

CMenu* pMenu = AfxGetMainWnd()->GetMenu();

if (pMenu)
pMenu->DestroyMenu();

CMainFrame* pFrame = reinterpret_cast<CMainFrame*>(m_pMainWnd)->SetNewMenu(IDR_MENU1);
ASSERT(pFrame != NULL);

HMENU hMenu = pFrame->NewMenu();
CMenu* pNewMenu = CMenu::FromHandle( hMenu );
ASSERT(pNewMenu != NULL);

AfxGetMainWnd()->SetMenu(pNewMenu);

Thanks, that helped me so much. Actually i used it in Pocket PC, but using the different way. I used there CCeCommandBar, and just did this:

AfxSetResourceHandle(hInst);
CMainFrame\* pMainFrame = (CMainFrame\*)AfxGetApp()->m\_pMainWnd;
pMainFrame->m\_wndMenuBar.ResetCommandBar();
pMainFrame->m\_wndMenuBar.InsertMenuBar(IDR\_MAINFRAME);
pMainFrame->m\_wndMenuBar.LoadToolBar(IDR\_TOOLBAR1);

Thanks again.

I'm glad it helped as I have just noticed that I did not format the code correctly for HTML and therefore some of it is missing.:doh: I'll modify it just for the records! Ant.
