Right. MyMenu.mnx is a table, and MyMenu.mnt is the associated memo file. When you create a menu through the menu designer, you must generate the menu. You call the menu with a DO MyMenu.MPR or DO MyMenu.MPX (compiled version of .MPR).

I usually have a .PRG that does some setup sork, then it calls the Menu with a DO command, followed immediately by a READ EVENTS command. I have an EXIT option on my menu bar that has a CLEAR EVENTS to return control back to my .PRG which cleans up and quits the application.
