Dynamic menu and item clicked

[William LaMartin]

I recall being able to do this in Vb.net, but I can seem to find a way to
accomplish it in the compact framework.

I want to connect to a compact SQL database, get the list of tables and
display them in a menu. I have no trouble doing this. My problem begins
when I want to retrieve the text of the menu item when one of these
dynamically created menu items is clicked.

In VB.net I could add an item to the menu as follows.

mnuMain.MenuItems.Add("Menu Caption", AddressOf MenuItem_Click)

That allowed me to associate handler for the click event. However, in the
compact framework I can only add a Windows.Forms.MenuItem--with no method
that I see of associating a click event handler.

What is my solution?

Your solution is to add an event handler to the menuitem (with
AddHandler) before adding it to the collection.

Thanks very much. That did the trick.
