Value	Meaning
MF_CHECKED	Indicates that the menu item has a check mark next to it.
MF_GRAYED	Indicates that the menu item is initially inactive and drawn with a gray effect.
MF_HELP	Indicates that the menu item has a vertical separator to its left.
MF_MENUBARBREAK	Indicates that the menu item is placed in a new column. The old and new columns are separated by a bar.
MF_MENUBREAK	Indicates that the menu item is placed in a new column.
MF_OWNERDRAW	Indicates that the owner window of the menu is responsible for drawing all visual aspects of the menu item, including highlighted, checked, and inactive states. This option is not valid for an item in a menu bar.
MF_POPUP	Indicates that the item is one that opens a drop-down menu or submenu.
