Is it possible to dynamically add items to a menu and use one event handler
for click events?

If so, how do you detect which of the new items was clicked?

Thanks,
Tom

In the handling routine, you'll be passed an object. Cast this object to
a MenuItem. You can then use any number of properties to distinguish
between various MenuItems.

A personal favourite is to use the "Tag" property of a menu to store enough
information (such as a string) which is used to interpret the the menu
click. I usually use the Magic library for menus (www.dotnetmagic.com), but
I'm assuming that the standard .NET menus have this also (it's common to all
[Control]s as far as I know.
