This topic describes the resource strings used by the TcxGridPopupMenu component for built-in menu items. TcxGridPopupMenu provides standard popup menus for column headers, View footer panels, group footer panels, and group rows. To enable built-in menu items, set the TcxGridPopupMenu.UseBuiltInPopupMenus property to True.

Resource strings used by the TcxGridPopupMenu component are declared in the cxGridPopupMenuConsts unit.
