George,

Two additional things for you to consider...

1) IF you are invoking the menu using a "macro", then the Project Manager would not 'miss' this at build time (since it has no way of knowing at that time). The simplest way to overcome this is to add a dummy, never-to-be-executed procedure/function, probably at the end of your MAIN prog., to simply do a DO realmenu.mpr. This will cause the PM to bring it in at build time.

2) Others have reported that including a component, but in the "wrong" place, leads to trouble too. Are you sure that the menu in question is actually included in the Menu section of the PM's list??

Good luck,
Jim N
