Returns the menu item identifier of a submenu assigned to a menu item.

MENUID _GetItemSubMenu(MENUID menuid, ITEMID itemid);
MENUID menuid;            /* Menu identifier */
ITEMID itemid;            /* Menu item identifier*/

Remarks

A submenu is treated as an independent menu. _GetItemSubMenu( ) returns the MENUID of the submenu assigned to a specified menu item, or a – 1 if there is no submenu assigned to the menu item.
