The interface gives access to properties of individual items in a menu. IMenuItem_KC interface is retuned from methods of  IMenu_KC interface. It is recommended to reacquire IMenuItem_KC after modifications of structure of the menu (items removed or added).

The menu where an item belongs can be obtained via query for IMenu_KC from IMenuItem_KC.

A menu item can represent a submenu, This can be detected with IsSubMenu() method.

A menu item can belong to a submenu. In this case the parent item can be obtained with a GetPrevLevel() call. Query IMenu_KC from the returned interface to get the parent menu and possibly access siblings of this item
