Menu items that reflect the document status

Hi all,

How do you get the behavior where in TextEdit, if you have a plain text and a rich text file open, when you switch between the two files, the Format > Make Plain Text and Format > Make Rich Text menu items will change according to the type of document currently in focus?

So in my situation, I have a document-based application, with a menu item that allows the user to toggle the grid background on and off. Currently I have two docs that have blank backgrounds, if I toggle one of them to show the grid, and then switch to the other blank doc, the Show Grid menu item will have a tick next to it, obviously incorrect user feedback for that doc. How would I correct this?

Thanks,

David
