>I have GENMENUX.PRG installed on my local drive, under c:\Genmenu. The dates on my GENMENUX.PRG and INTL.PRG files are 01/07/1999, but the last comment in GENMENUX.PRG is dated 09/05/1995, right under the comment ** RELEASE OF VERSION 3.0

>I have the necessary references to _GENMENU and _MNXDRV2 in my CONFIG.FPW. I am trying to rebuild a VFP 6.0 menu named PRMAIN. The menu files (.MNT, .MNX, and .MPR) are located in c:\Program Files\M2mwind\Prod\Menus. I am running VFP 6.0 under Win NT 4.0.

>Genmenu Error
>Cannot open file C:\PROGRAM FILES\M2MWIND\PROD\MENUS\PRMAIN.MPR

>At this point, all I can do is click the OK button. The generation dialog stays frozen in the middle of my screen.

>I don't know how or where the company installed GENMENUX. This is how the files were setup on my machine when I started working here 4 months ago. I have no written documentation, and no one around me seems to know where it might be. For that matter, no one around me has needed to regenerate menus in recent memory, so I can't call on their experience to troubleshoot this error. I've visited Steven Black's website, but there was next to nothing mentioned about GENMENUX, other than to check the Appendix in the documentation (which I don't have).

>The first thing which leapt to mind is that this version of GENMENUX might not be able to handle Windows folder names (long names, spaces in the name). If this is the case, I've got a real problem. Changing the folder name really isn't an option.

>Is there a newer version of GENMENUX on the maket, something designed to handle Visual FoxPro issues? If so, where would I get it? As I mentioned, Steven Black's site was not particularly helpful (Sorry, Steve, but I gotta be honest).

Hi Bill,

The author of GenMenuX is Andrew Ross MacNeill. www.meistermacneill.com/products.htm has the last version of GenMenuX available.
