Property Value

Type: System::Boolean
true to indicate that the current menu item is selected in a Menu control; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Use the Selected property to specify or determine whether the current menu item is selected.

NoteNote:

Although the property can be used to determine whether a menu item is selected, it is more common to use the SelectedItem property.

Only one menu item can be selected at a time in the Menu control.

The following example demonstrates how to use the Selected property to select a specific menu item in a Menu control when the page is first loaded. For this example to work correctly, you must copy the sample site map data below to a file named Web.sitemap.

No code example is currently available or this language may not be supported.

The following is sample site map data for the previous example.
