Re: child view and menu

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

The way this is done is that you have a CMultiDocTemplate which specifies the document
class, view class, frame class, and the IDR_ symbol for the resources, which include the
menu, icon, and specification string. You would create your views from this.

Or do you mean you want a menu in EACH child window, and all are the same type? In that
case, you would not SetMenu in the view, you would SetMenu to the parent of the view, the
MDI Child Frame. The view is a child window of the frame, and cannot have a menu.

I have MDI application. Main window contains child windows and I want to
create for every child window it's own menu. SetMenu() returns with error:
ERROR_CHILD_WINDOW_MENU.
Does exist way to create menu in child window, or it is not possible ?

Thx!
