Backward Looping!

Assume that a menu has 50 items & I want to unload all the 50 items when a CommandButton is clicked. If I use the following code:

Private Sub cmdDelete()
    Dim i As Integer
 
    For i = 0 To mnuMovies.UBound
        Unload mnuMovies(i)
    Next i
End Sub

Then only 49 menu items get unloaded; the very first item still remains but if I use this code:

Private Sub cmdDelete()
    Dim i As Integer
 
    For i = mnuMovies.UBound To 1 Step -1
        Unload mnuMovies(i)
    Next i
End Sub

Then all the 50 menu items get unloaded. Why doesn't the first code snippet unload all the menu items?

well i'm surprised you even get that first one two work. Presumably in that array the first member was created at design time and you can't unload controls created at design time.

For i = 1 To mnuMovies.UBound
        Unload mnuMovies(i)
    Next i

works just fine

Yes, you are very much correct but in that case, how does the second code snippet in post #1 unload the first item in the menu which has been created at design time?

It is not possible.
Check if your other code is hiding mnuMovies(0).
