Try
WM_MENUSELECT.

thanks that works great for normal menu items... but if i tried to retrieve menu string (caption) of menu item which contains popup menu then it fails. how can i retrieve caption of an menu item which contains popup (sub) menu. i'm facing difficulties because such menu items don't have an ID. :(

When it's a popup menu then it won't have a command id but it will have an index right. You get index in LOWORD( WPARAM ). Use
MF_BYPOSITIONwithGetMenuStringto retrieve menu string. :~ Tell me if it works.
