Menus & Menu designer
I did RTFM. I spent quite a bit of time poking around there and didn't find it. I didn't think to look under right-click menus since I wasn't doing a right-click menu.

>Including Menus in an Application

>Add the .mnx file to your project, then build the application from the project. For more information about building your application, see Chapter 13, Compiling an Application.
>Attaching Shortcut Menus to Controls
>Once you create and generate a shortcut menu, you can attach it to a control. Shortcut menus typically appear when a user right-clicks on a control. You can attach a shortcut menu to a particular control by entering a small amount of code in the right-click event of the control.

>Select the control to which you want to attach the shortcut menu.

>In the Properties window, choose the Methods tab and select Right Click Event.

>
>In the code window, type DO menu.MPR, where menu is the name of the shortcut menu.
>Note Be sure to use the .mpr extension when referencing shortcut menus.

>Attaching SDI Menus to Forms
>Once you create an SDI menu, you can attach it to an SDI form. In addition, you must:
>
>Set the form’s ShowWindow property.
>Add a DO statement to the form’s Init event.
>To attach an SDI menu to a form
>
>In the Form Designer, set the form’s ShowWindow property to 2 – As Top Level Form.
>
>
>In the Init event of the form, call the menu.
>For example, if your menu is called SDIMENU.MPR, add this code:
>
>DO SDIMENU.MPR WITH THIS,.T.

>I added the color. IOW, RTFM. Having Jim around is no excuse not to read the docs in the first place!
