Look At Alex's ActiveDesktop tool available for download:

It is really cool. Here is the readme.htm:

Active Desktop is actually two different user interface components that you can use in your VFP applications. The Treeview form facilitates menu navigation by providing the user with a treeview-based menu system, that gets automatically populated from the application's menu file. Desktop is meant to be used in conjunction with the Treeview form. It allows your users to drag a menu item from the treeview onto the VFP "desktop" (this form) for the most commonly used menu choices. See the "Active Desktop.doc" file for more information.
