>>>use the menu designer (obviously, since that is the title of this section). have the skip for set to a variable. as the variable changes from .f. to .t. the prompt does not turn black (remains gray). how do i keep the prompt current with the value of the skip for variable?

You may try it anyway, it used to be helpful. You will PUSH/POP the same menu, just to make sure that it will catch new SKIP FOR variables. Surely, I assume that you have problems with menu pads, because menu bars should work Ok without this.
