You need to create a handler for the command update message for that menu item and set the checked value in there.

Can you post an example please?

Sure but of course you know there are many on msdn.microsoft.com right?

afx_msg void OnUpdateRequestSendxml(CCmdUI* pCmdUI);


ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI(ID_REQUEST_SENDXML, OnUpdateRequestSendxml)

void Doc::OnUpdateRequestSendxml(CCmdUI* pCmdUI) 
{
	pCmdUI->Enable();
	pCmdUI->SetCheck( _bSendXml);
}

void CSIFARSDlg::OnUpdateSupervision(CCmdUI* pCmdUI) 
{
    pCmdUI->Enable();
    pCmdUI->SetCheck(1);
}

Does'nt work... the item don't check...
Is there anything else I need to do ??? ?

I assume then that is a CDialog based class and that the application is not a Document/View project type?

CDialog does not implement the OnInitMenuPopup() so you need to do it yourself. Here is a MSDN article that provides the implementation details.
