Main Page

Returns the number of menu items on a user-defined menu or the Visual FoxPro system menu.

CNTBAR(cMenuName)

Parameters

cMenuName


Specifies the name of the menu for which CNTBAR(В ) returns the number of menu items. For a list of the Visual FoxPro system menu names, see the System Menu Names topic.

Return Value

Numeric

Remarks

If a user-defined menu is created with the PROMPT option in DEFINE POPUP, Visual FoxPro evaluates the number of menu items when you issue ACTIVATE POPUP. For such a menu, CNTBAR(В ) returns a meaningful value only after you activate the menu. However, if the menu items in the menu are created with DEFINE BAR, CNTBAR(В ) can determine the number of menu items before you issue ACTIVATE POPUP.

Example

In the following program example, named CNTBAR.prg, a menu title is added to the system menu. The menu popEnv is created with four menu items. The program places a mark character by each item when the item is selected. CNTBAR(В ) is used within a loop to initially display marks next to the appropriate menu items.
