That may work, but he wanted to know what menu was opened. BTW, here's the text from "The Windows Interface Guidelines for Software Design":

"If the user opens a menu by clicking on the menu title, the menu title is highlighted and the drop-down menu remains displayed until the user clicks the mouse again. Clicking a menu item in the drop-down menu or dragging over and releasing the mouse button on a menu item chooses the command associated with the menu item and removes the drop-down menu. When the system displays a drop-down menu, clicking its associated menu title again cancels the menu and removes the drop-down. Clicking another menu title also results in canceling any displayed drop-down menu, and displays the menu associated with that menu title."
