First, do you need to put the option on the menu bar...or append it to
the existing menu. Both these go against Windows standards. You should
define "Lookup" as a popup from menu bar option. It also should not append
to the menu. "Help" should be the last option on the menu.

As for Alt-L, do you have anything else assigned to Alt-L? Maybe a button
on the form or an ON KEY LABEL?

As for F2, hot keys like this don't work for items on the menu bar.
