I don't think it is a bug.  It's the way child-windows behave in
windows.  Take a look at Word or Excel.
 I don't think you can get around this problem, but there are so much
you can do with VB that I don't know.

Move the menu to another form (the MDI form), and hide it. When you show it
using PopupMenu, it will be visible.
