The ID of the menu item to be enabled.

Return Value

Type: Usual
A LONG indicating the previous state of the item. If the item does not exist the return value is -1.

Remarks

Enabling a menu item allows it to generate events and to send the events to its owner window when the user manipulates the menu command. The dimming of disabled menu item is removed, and the menu item is restored to its normal appearance. By default, menu item are enabled until disabled, so there is no need to call this EnableItem() method unless DisableItem() was previously called.

Tip
You can also use this method to enable a menu item on a submenu of a menu.
