Remarks
Use SetMenuItemInfo to set the menu item content, an application-defined identifier, and application-defined data. SetMenuItemInfo can also set the menu item type, but it cannot change the type.
SetMenuItemInfo cannot set the menu item state, submenu, and check mark bitmaps.
In order for keyboard accelerators to work with bitmap or owner-drawn menu items, the owner of the menu must process the WM_MENUCHAR message
