     #include <menu.h>

     int
     item_value(ITEM *item);

     the value to a value other than TRUE or FALSE will have undefined re-
     sults.

     E_OK              The function was successful.
     E_NOT_CONNECTED   The item is not connected to a menu.
     E_REQUEST_DENIED  The menu driver could not process the request.
