How can I set the check/uncheck mark of a menu item in a context menu which is not part of the command manager i.e these items are dynamically created and I do not want this information to be serialized. I have created CExtPopupMenuWnd, called CreatePopupMenu and then inserted the items using ItemInsertCommand. Even though I pass the nCheck parameter with appropriate values (1 & 0), I dont see the check marks on the context menu item. Am I missing something?

ok works. thanks

Please find the following code in CPagePopupMenus::OnContextMenu() in the ProfUIS_Controls sample

pLongSubMenu->ItemInsertCommand(
      nCmdID,
      -1,
      LPCTSTR(strLongCommandName)
      );

and replace it with

pLongSubMenu->ItemInsertCommand(
      nCmdID,
      -1,
      LPCTSTR(strLongCommandName),
      NULL,
      NULL,
      false,
      1
      );

Now if you run this sample again, select the popup menus page, invoke a context menu over it and select the Long sub-menu, then you will see many checked menu items. So please make sure you set all the parameters in the CExtPopupMenuWnd::ItemInsertCommand() method correctly.
