i have tried a different implementation and it works well.
i have made the following function.

void ConstructMenu(HMENU Popup, TMenuItem *item)
{
         for(int i=0;i<GetMenuItemCount(Popup);i++)
         {
                 TMenuItem *additem=new TMenuItem(Form1);
                 char buf[200];
                 GetMenuString(Popup,i,buf,200,MF_BYPOSITION);
                 additem->Caption=buf;
                 if(additem->Caption=="")
                         additem->Caption="-";
                 additem->OnClick=Form1->ExClick;
                 /*MENUITEMINFO inf;
                 inf.cbSize=sizeof(MENUITEMINFO);
                 inf.fMask=MIIM_TYPE;
                 if(GetMenuItemInfo(Popup,i,true,&inf) && (inf.fType & 
MFT_BITMAP))
 
additem->Bitmap->Handle=(void*)LOWORD(inf.dwTypeData);*/
                 item->Add(additem);
                 HMENU Sub=GetSubMenu(Popup,i);
                 if(Sub)
                         ConstructMenu(Sub,additem);
         }
}

As you can see i add the found items to my own popup menu.
I have faced two problems. first i cannot find out how to retrieve
the icon displayed left of a popupmenu item. look at the code inside the
/**/ and tell me what is wrong with that? everything else works fine.
apart from that the other problem is located somewhere inside your code.
For some reason although the popupmenu gets the right items the subitems
are not found. for example in the Open with item the is only one subitem
"Open with" again. that happens in the send to as well. Another problem
is that sometimes the invoke command does not function. like when i 
click on copy or cut. but it works great on open, delete, properties etc.

Apart from that can you tell me if the code will need a lot variations 
in case i have multiselected items? what will i have to put as path in 
such a case?
