Remarks
The context menu is the menu that
appears when you right click on the control. You can turn it on or
off by setting the ContextMenuEnabled property.
The context menu is initially empty; you add your preferred menu
items to it using the ContextMenuItem methods.
The menuID parameter indicates whether to address the main context menu or a submenu. The menuID of the main context menu is always 0. The menuID of a submenu is returned when the submenu is created with AppendContextMenuSubmenu or InsertContextMenuSubmenu. Note that this menuID has no relation to any ID used by the Windows API.
