If an menu was used as a drop-down from a vbAccelerator Toolbar control, and it contained infrequently used items which were hidden, once the items were exposed they did not respond when clicked. Now all items click correctly.

When showing as a chevron in a menu, if you customised which buttons were visible they could incorrectly appear in the chevron menu.

Disabled items now draw in the correct colour when XP style is in effect.

Subclassing Without The Crashes

Clear does not clear control properly

Summary

Id:	7.12
Type:	Bug
Current Status:	Open

Detail

After calling Clear, I was unable to add items again as I got a duplicate key error.

I managed to overcome the problem by using ctlPopMenu.ClearSubMenusOfItem ("xxxx"), where "xxxx", "yyyy" and "zzzz" are the sub menus I previously created.

I would have thought that ctlpopMenu.Clear would have done the same thing and cleared out the whole lot in one go, but apparently it does not.
