I'm afraid I don't follow your point, Mark.
I don't distribute menus. If their location is in the path, and they are included in the project, then they don't have to be included any more than a .scx file has to be included.
Elyse- I had trouble with this initially also, but got it worked out eventually.
One thing that through me for a loop... DO MENU will accept the .mpr filename in quotes or by itself. In quotes, it gave me the message you are getting. By itslelf, it worked. If this doesn't work, and you are sure that the file is in the path, play around with the calling syntax. You shouldn't have to distribute your menu files.
