1. If I use ON PAD .... ACTIVATE POPUP
- the popup does show up with or without any single border (depended on the SHORTCUT clause of DEFINE POPUP)
- with border, it still is no 3D and the menuitems don´t get selected automaticly when you hover over it
2. With ON SELECTION PAD .... ACTIVATE POPUP
- The popup looks like a normal Windows menupopup, but does display at the wrong x,y position. Though you can calculate the Y postion, determining the X position is a lot harder.
- You can not browse through the menu (when you´ve got activated the menu choose other pads and the popups show automatically)
And of course, the menu itself does not look like a graphical menubar.
Anyways this looks like a strategy with all kinds of problems.

>>>Create a procedure or program to setup your menu which will include:
>>>
>>>DEFINE MENU Route_Status_Menu BAR AT LINE .1 IN WINDOW frmRoute_Status
>>>
>>>then do all the define pads, bars, popups, on selections, etc.
>>>
>>>at the bottom of the menu setup code:
>>>
>>>ACTIVATE MENU Route_Status_Menu NOWAIT
>>>
>>>In the init event of the form, call the procedure or program to setup and activate the menu.

>>Yes, I´ve gotten that far, but apart from that the menu looks different from the normal menu, I can´t to seem to find a way to let the menupopus look like the standard windows way, unless I use ON SELECTION PAD .... ACTIVATE POPUP .... , Now this has the main problem that the menu does not show up on the right coordinates.

>>Have you found a way out ?
