How do I get the list of menu options available

[Vandana]

I am trying to automate a windows application, where I need to check the state of the menu options. For instance, consider the notepad application. I want my script to get all the options available under the "File" menu. Also in addition, I would also like to check the state of each of the links under "File" option.

Thanks in advance.

take a look on the help file in _GUICtrlMenu_GetItemData

or all functions under _GUICtrlMenu

1. use  GUICtrlMenu_GetMenu to get the main menus such as File, About among others

2. use _GUICtrlMenu_GetItemSubMenu to get all the submenus under each menu.

Then you can check the states.
