A MenuItem that represents the selected menu item.

Use the SelectedItem property to determine the menu item selected by the user.

As a shortcut, you can also determine the text of the selected menu item directly by using the SelectedValue property.

When the user selects a menu item from a Menu control, the MenuItemClick event is raised, which allows you to perform a custom routine by providing an event handler.
