I think there might be a "hasSubMenu" property of TMenuItem to help you test for that condition. Whether it has an OnClick handler or not does not tell you if it's going to drop down a submenu or not.

To: [email protected] Date: Monday, March 16, 2009, 8:18 AM I'd like to intercept a menu click, perform some action, then continue as if the menu was clicked normally. When there is an event associated with a menu item, this is easy, I can replace the old OnClick handler with mine, then execute the saved OnClick handler after I have done my dirty deed. But what if the menu has no action? EG The "&File" menu on most applications simply drops down the menu. I'd like to intercept the action (add my own OnClick handler I guess), but then, when I discover the old handler is unassigned, I'd like to continue normally by showing the menu: this second time *without* intercepting again... ... any ideas? I'm guessing maybe PostMessage( ... WM_SHOWMENU, ...) but I'm not figuring out the argfuments from the docs to make a test. Thanks in advance. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
