If you don't use MFC than use SetMenuItemInfo API function. First you call GetMenu(hWnd), than GetSubMenu() for retrieving your &quot;Edit&quot; menu and than SetMenuItemInfo to set the new text.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I'd like be able to change the text of a menu item at runtime. &nbsp;In particular, I'm trying to change the text of the item which is normally edit-&gt;undo. &nbsp;I'm going for the same idea like in MS Word where it says &quot;Undo Typing&quot; or if you format some text it'll say &quot;Undo Bold&quot;, etc...<br />
<br />
So how can I change this dynamically? The id will always be ID_EDIT_UNDO.<br />
