Standard Item and Group Menus
Most branches of the Collections Tree are reference lists, and they share two menus: a group menu on the branch header, and an item menu on each entry. Branches with commands of their own are listed on their own pages; this page covers the two shared menus and says which branches use them.
Source resources: IDR_CT_DEFAULTGROUP, IDR_CT_DEFAULTITEM.
