>Robert Abram, who lives here in UT, has already figured out how it can be done. He's actually sent me some very preliminary code and you can do things like put a menu in a form, etc...

I'm not sure what you mean, you can already run a menu in a form. You can also create an OO Wrapper for menus too. I don't think we're gonna see an OO Menu Designer anymore... how about XML driven?

>Things is is that VFP needs to play better in MSFT's sandbox and (IMO) MSFT needs to make those object menus the same (underneath) for ALL MSFT products. Doesn't make sense to me any other way.

I'm still not sure what you mean (but it is late so give me that). If you're saying that the OS should use the same object interface for menues, I disagree. Windows shoudln't care how you define your menus or manipulate them, wether through Objects, Procedureal code, DBFs, or XML.

But if you're saying that VB, VC++ and VFP should all create menus the same way... I suppose why not.
