DLGTYPE is a "leftover" in the help file from VDS2x
(it should have been removed). The STYLE element
replaced it in VDS3x and later.

Not all elements can have their style changed. The
menu style cannot be changed in VDS3x, not sure
about VDS4.

You can make custom menus by using a child window.
Here's the link to "Custom POPUP menu" (in VDS3
source code). Check all the examples, more features
were added.

These are popup menus, but you can use the idea to
create custom menus for the main program, just use
text elements with the CLICK style for "File", "Edit", etc.
