It worked using this syntax:

RightClick Event of Grid:
private nBar
nBar = 0
do shortcut.mpr with nBar
do case
...
endcase

In the setup code of the menu:
parameter nBar

All options have result = command with the following code:
nBar = bar()

The only thing I can think of what was wrong before is that: I probably added the parameter code in either Procedure or Cleanup of the menu.

>Still does not work. I have, in my main menu - which was generated from a modified quick menu, options that calls form methods directly (ie. frmMain.cmdAdd.click) from the command portion of the menu and worked.
