Checkmark on Menu Item
 

I want to be able to put a checkmark beside a menu item when the user selects
that item from the menu. For example, under the View menu when the user
selects Task Pane the pane appears and a checkmark appears beside the 'Task
Pane' on the menu.

I would expect something like CommandBarControl.checked but it's not that
straightforward.

I used to know how to do this but the method has slipped my mind. Please help.

Thank you.

Checkmark on Menu Item
 

This is an example of a macro assigned to a commandbar that would do this


With Application.CommandBars.Action*Control
If .State = msoButtonUp Then
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(.Cap*tion).Visible = xlSheetHidden
.State = msoButtonDown
Else
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(.Cap*tion).Visible = xlSheetVisible
.State = msoButtonUp
End If
End With
