Menu on my device contains only 1 menu item "Add Speed Dial". Is there a way for me to add my own menu items to it? If not the front-door way, is there a hack? I can probably fetch handle to the menu and add an item to it, but I'd be faced with following things: - when to know that that window is created. Constantly calling FindWindow, probably is bad idea. - when menu item is selected, windows message will be sent to which window? - when menu is destroyed, how can I ensure memory associated with the new item is released? Unrelated question, how can I create extra items in the Settings menu? I know how to create control panel applets for Pocket PC but on Smartphone this is different.
