I think it is because those items are of different contexts : one in a form,
and one in a menu. AFAIK, all objects inside a form/menu ... will have
different ids, not between forms/menu ... .
I guess you have the MainFormDoCommand to process all button and menu
events.
How about separating it into two different functions : one to process menu
commands , one to process button ones ?
Like:
case menuEvent:
return MainFormDoMenuCommand( (pEvent->data.menu.itemID);
case ctlSelect :
return MainFormDoButtonCommand(pEvent->data.ctlSelect.controlID);
