Specifies either the identifier of the new menu item or, if the uFlags parameter is set to MF_POPUP, the handle to the drop-down menu or submenu.

MF_BITMAP

MF_OWNERDRAW
Contains a 32-bit value supplied by the application that can be used to maintain additional data related to the menu item. The value is in the itemData member of the structure pointed to by the lparam parameter of the WM_MEASURE or WM_DRAWITEM message sent when the menu is created or its appearance is updated.
MF_STRING
