Keeping context menu open even after clicking?

Hi,

I'm trying to add a context menu to my form that would contain only
items that can be checked.  I would like the context menu to stay open
when the user clicks an item.  This way, they wouldn't need to re-open
the context menu to check 5 or 6 items at once.

So basically, open the context menu, check a few items, then click out
of the context menu to close it.

Is it possible?  I thought about reopening the menu after every click
but that seems like a stupid solution (and the flickering is ugly).

Thanks!

Carl

Hi Carl,

AFAIK it is not possible with standart Windows menus. They are designed to
work in the way they work.
