I re-generated the menu program from the main menu structure earlier today. The behaviour was the same. Kinda running out of ideas with this one. Again, thanks for your suggestions.

>Have you tried MODIFY MENU MyMenu and saved that? I am not sure if there are any "structural" changes between the menus from VFP8 to VFP9, but in the past there were. Just by modifying the menu upgraded those menu files to the newer version. Just recompiling would not do that.

>>>Go to the "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VFP" folder (and anywhere else you may have copied these runtimes) to make sure all the VFP9*.* files are dated December 13, 2004. You may be running a beta version of the runtimes. I have a VFP9 app that started in VFP8 in production and have not noticed this problem.

However, the shared .EXE deployed from a server location does give this behaviour. FYI, the VFP8 version from the same location works as expected (ie., menu selection behaves as you would expect it to).
