... DEACTIVATE POPUP removes an active menu or set of menus from the main Visual FoxPro window or a user-defined window without removing the menu definition from memory. ...HIDE POPUP ....
Hiding a menu isn't the same as deactivating it. When a menu is hidden, it stays resident in memory and can be displayed in the main Visual FoxPro window or in a user-defined window with ACTIVATE POPUP or SHOW POPUP.Where is the difference ?
