Use the Menu Designer to create a new menu. Choose Menu | Quick Menu from the VFP menu. If you don't plan to have a visible menu in your application and you just want to make these items available, delete everything except the Edit menu. Use Menu| Generate to generate an MPR file. Early in your application, call the file: DO MyMenu.MPR.
