Nay, needs to be all on the main menu, no subs.
"What I'm wondering is why you need to have the sperator at the topmost level would it not be better to to have the five menu options in the menu at level 1 and then have the relavent submenus for each menu under each respective menu item?"
Nay, I need to have five seperate menus popup under five seperate images clicks. The software I am emulating does not have subs menus. Each seperate menu has five or so options visible the second the targeted menu is called into visibility. The individual captions on each menu is highlighted when the mouse is over each caption and all captions on that specific menu is seperated with a seperator. Im guessing it was not written in VB language.
But currently I only know VB, and I need to create my program to be as close to the real grogram as possible.
I got the popup right, now I just need to get the Highlight code.
I got the Popups to work.
For anyone interested I used this:
ON FORM1
'The menu editor looked like this...

...Caption2
...-
...Caption3

All the MAIN(s) were set to visible=false
'In five seperate image click events I had them call a 'Main like so...
me.PopUpmenu mnuMain1
'Each image click brought up the correct menu's with 'seperators
Now I need your help with adding a Highlight code, so that when a mouse is over a caption on a main menu the caption will be highlighted. Like you would see in most drop down menus. Any takers?
