I really like the Toolbar Index sort thing. But is that
really a popup or a ToolBar??

Using Toolbars as menus (instead of Top Line Menus) sounds
pretty realistic. I have definitely run across customers
who dread the idea of having to Hunt through a Top Line Menu
to find the option they want. 'In their face' is usually
the preferred method.

Thanks for the ideas
