Copies the displayed keyboard shortcut string for the specified menu item to the buffer pointed to by the text parameter.
int _GetItemCmdKey(MENUID menuid, ITEMID itemid, char FAR *text) MENUID menuid; /* Menu identifier. */ ITEMID itemid; /* Menu item identifier. */ char FAR *text; /* Where to store the shortcut string. */ |
Remarks
_GetItemCmdKey(В ) returns the internal keyboard code for the keyboard shortcut. If there is no keyboard shortcut for the specified menu item, _GetItemCmdKey(В ) returns 0.
For more information on how to create an API library and integrate it with Visual FoxPro, see Accessing the Visual FoxPro API.
Example
The following example creates a menu with three items, setting up a keyboard shortcut for each item. It uses _GetItemCmdKey(В ) to display the shortcut keys.
