Menu Bar Problem

PocketPCDev >> Menu Bar Problem

I have tried using SHCreateMenuBar, I put the following code in the
initdialog method.

SHMENUBARINFO info;
info.cbSize = sizeof(info);
info.hwndParent = m_hWnd;
info.dwFlags = 0;
info.nToolBarId = IDR_MENUBAR1;
info.hInstRes = ::AfxGetInstanceHandle();
info.nBmpId = 0;
info.cBmpImages = 0;
SHCreateMenuBar(&info);

IDR_MENUBAR1 is the menu bar I insert in the resourse view. I can
compile the program successfully. However,
I can't
see my menu bar appear at the bottom. Is there anything else I need to
do?
Please help, thanks!

My code is almost like yours, except I zero out the whole struct
SHMENUBARINFO before assigning values to its members. This means I zero out
the field clrBk also, while you don't. ( And my menubar displays just fine
:-).

Not sure if it is the problem but it won't hurt to try.

If your InitDialog is not too long, then posting it here may be helpful to
find out the problem.

Have you tried to zero out the field clrBk ?

If your code of InitDialog is not too long , posting it here may be helpful
to find out the problem.

SHCreateMenuBar(&info);

return TRUE; // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control

PocketPCDev >> Menu Bar Problem I would like to ask, when I create this project, I select dialog based, not
single document, is it relevant?

PocketPCDev >> Menu Bar Problem I have tried to zero out using
memset(&info, 0, sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO));

However, the menu bar still not shown. What should I do?
Can anyone tell me how to do step by step?

Yes, my apps often are dialog-based ones with that same way of creating menu
bar.

I know what I say here is silly, but it happened one time for me : when I
created the menubar, I had some problem with displaying it porperly ( it
flashed or something ). Then I delete the whole menu resource ( the
IDR_MENUBAR1 ) and re-create it. After that , it works. Maybe I screwed up
something under my menu definition. But after re-creating it, it works.

PocketPCDev >> Menu Bar Problem I'm working on an answer to your _very_ similar question in "How to
create and add menu bar in EVC++ 3.0?"
