Members

wVersion

Template version number. This member must be 1 for extended menu templates.

dwHelpId

Remarks

An extended menu template consists of a MENUEX_TEMPLATE_HEADER structure followed by one or more contiguous MENUEX_TEMPLATE_ITEM structures. The MENUEX_TEMPLATE_ITEM structures, which are variable in length, are aligned on doubleword boundaries. To create a menu from an extended menu template in memory, use the LoadMenuIndirect function.
