Hi Jim,

This is getting a little complicated :(

I was running this build on a win98 laptop (which I left at home this AM)
I just tried to reproduce it on a Win NT 4 machine but cannot reproduce the error.

My Setup (which had the problem) :
Win 98 Osr2
VFP7 (From the September MSDN update - No SP's installed)
VFP6 custom menu called view (Not opened & converted to VFP7)
VFP6 Uninstalled from the machine

When I get home tonight I will have a look at the _Genmenu path and get back to you.

Judging by Vlad's response I think he managed to repro. this problem so maybe it's an OS specific issue.

Thanks

Will

>I'm not seeing this. I made a quick menu in VFP7, and added a new bar to the View menu. I added your code below to the SKIP FOR, and "Blah" as the message. My MPR has this:

>I don't see the problem here on my end. Maybe it has something to do with the specifics of your menu. I also tried a custom menu with a bar called view, and it still works fine for me. Are you using the released version of VFP7, or a beta? Also make sure that _genmenu contains the path to the correct genmenu.prg, which should be located in the VFP7 home directory.
