>Several years ago I remember a DevCon demo where open instances of a form (or open windows) were added to the app's menu -- like most Windows apps do when items are opened. Can someone offer hints as to how this is done? I've experimented with redefining the menu pad and all of its bars on the fly, but I seem to remember that the solution demonstrated was more elegant than that. In this case, the form's caption includes a job number that should become the menu prompt. The prompt will need to change when the job data is requeried. Also, there can be multiple instances of the form.

Hi Linda,

You may check the Tastrade sample which comes with VFP. TSBASE.VCX - TSBASEFORM class - ADDTOMENU/REMOVEFROMMENU methods.
