[in] The menu item for which the check mark attribute is to be set, as determined by the uCheck parameter.

[in] Constants that control the interpretation of the uIDCheckItem parameter and the state of the menu item's check mark attribute. This parameter can be a combination of MF_BYCOMMAND or MF_BYPOSITION and MF_CHECKED or MF_UNCHECKED. For more information, see Menus Constants.
Return Value
The return value specifies the previous state of the menu item (either MF_CHECKED or MF_UNCHECKED). 0xFFFFFFFF indicates that the menu item does not exist.
Remarks
An item in a menu bar cannot have a check mark.
