Simulating a menu click

For a demo I move the cursor to an entry in the menu bar. Next I want to
emulate a click on the item, have the menu show its items list, move the
cursor down the list and emulate anothe rclick.

Help: "MenuItem.click does not generate a WM_COMMAND message ..." and the
menu will not show its list.
Apparently I need to send such a message myself.
I come as far as PostMessage(targetform.handle,WM_COMMAND, ? , ?) and when I
try this out with various parameters, the menu never reveals its list items.
