Inorder to keep the submenu from disappearing, you must change the attribute
of the menuitem in you .rc file to MIA_NODISMISS. For example

        SUBMENU "File", ID_FILE
        {
          MENUITEM "New", ID_NEW,,MIA_NODISMISS
          MENUITEM "Open", ID_OPEN,,MIA_NODISMISS
          MENUITEM "Save", ID_SAVE
        }

In this example, when you select 'New' or 'Open' from the File menu it will
not disappear. However, if you select 'Save' it will. Hope this helps.
