Jaso #3 / 7	Creating Menus from eVB Thanks for the overwhelming responses. Needless to say much ploughing through the help got me to a point where a menu works, appears and does what any menu should. Problem. Too disable a menu option the code mnuFuncPlay.Enabled = False should work. mnuFuncPlay is created via mnuFunc.Items.Add 1, "mnuFuncPlay", "Play" however the application returns the following error Variable is undefined: 'mnuFuncPlay' does mnuFuncPlay need to be declared as a MenuBarMenu or does mnuFunc.Items do this for you?

Michael Fosmire [M #4 / 7	Creating Menus from eVB Hey Jason, Using the code sample in the help docs, the following works to disable a menu item: Private Sub Form_Load() Dim mnuEdit As MenuBarLib.MenuBarMenu Set mnuEdit = MenuBar1.Controls.AddMenu("Edit", "mnuEdit") mnuEdit.Items.Add 1, "mnuEditSort", "Sort" mnuEdit.Items.Add 2, "mnuEditFind", "Find" mnuEdit.Items(2).Enabled = False End Sub The problem is that you were trying to use the Key parameter of the Items.Add method as an MenuBarItem object. hth, -mike This posting is provided AS IS with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Jaso #5 / 7	Creating Menus from eVB yeah - thanks Michael, I did find a tutorial that used that exact code. It's now working quite well. My menus are following the the buttons. However, I have seen some menus that can be checked? At a loss as to how to create them. Any ideas?

Chris Tacke, eMV #6 / 7	Creating Menus from eVB My book covers Menus thoroughly. You can download the source code for free from the Sams web site (don't even have to buy the book) which should get you well on the way. -Chris Quote: > yeah - thanks Michael, I did find a tutorial that used that exact code. > It's now working quite well.

Alberto Silv #7 / 7	Creating Menus from eVB Hi Chris, And how do i refer to a menu bar option, from another code module? I wanted to uncheck a menu bar item, so I tried... form1.menubar1.controls.item("K1").checked = false ... but it gives me an error :( Could someone please help?
