_DeActivateMenu( ) API Library Routine


void _DeActivateMenu(MENUID menuid) MENUID menuid; /* Menu identifier. */

The menu isn't released from memory and can be reactivated with _ActivateMenu( ).

For more information on how to create an API library and integrate it with Visual FoxPro, see Accessing the Visual FoxPro API.

The following example activates and deactivates a menu several times.
