Thanks for the idea. I know what I'm doing seems bizarre. The why of it is explained in message ID 1015136.

My current kludge is similar to yours. I added a sub MenuItem, and just set the .Visible property to false. Now the .Popup event gets fired.

I'm not really happy with that solution, but it's working for now. But then I started to think "shouldn't I just be able to raise an event". If this was VB.NET, I think (not really sure) I could just use the RaiseEvent keyword.

Just seems like this should be a simle thing.

Thanks,
Mike
