MenuEv provides menu selection notification. In other words, it tells you when the user has selected a menu item and when the user has exited the menu. This is really useful for status bar-style help. MenuEv is really easy to use. All you need to do is place it on your form. There's nothing set. Events start coming in automatically.
Also, MenuEv will automatically update another control for you. You can easily make statusbar style help merely setting a couple of properties. No code required.
When the Enabled property is set to True (default), MenuEv automatically starts sending menu event notification messages when the user selects menu items at run-time.
MenuEv should be placed on all forms where its functionality is required (including MDI forms and children). MenuEv can be placed directly on an MDI form.
Usage Note When using MDI, MenuEv must be placed on an MDI parent form. Do not put it on MDI children. If MenuEv is not put on the MDI parent, it will not send your program events.
Distribution Note When you develop and distribute an application that uses MenuEv, you should install the file MENUEV3.VBX into the users Windows SYSTEM directory. MenuEv has version information built into it. So, during installation, you should ensure that you are not overwriting a newer version of MenuEv.
