Standard Item and Group Menus
Most branches of the Data Tree have no menu of their own. Their header and folders show the standard group menu, and the objects under them show the standard item menu. Branches with their own commands are listed on their own pages; this page covers the two shared menus.
Source resources: IDR_DT_DEFAULTGROUP, IDR_DT_DEFAULTITEM.
