Assigns a submenu to the specified menu item.

void _SetItemSubMenu(MENUID menuid, ITEMID itemid, 
                        MENUID submenuid)
MENUID menuid;            /* Menu identifier. */
ITEMID itemid;            /* Menu item identifier. */
MENUID submenuid;         /* Submenu identifier. */

Remarks

You can use _SetItemSubMenu( ) to attach a menu to a menu title or to a submenu to a menu item.

For more information on how to create an API library and integrate it with Visual FoxPro, see Accessing the Visual FoxPro API.

The following example adds a menu title to the system menu. Using _SetItemSubMenu( ), it then attaches a menu with two items to this menu title.
