How to use icons in Main Caption of Form Menu

[SidYuca]

I have seen icons on sub menus of a form (like scissors near the word "cut") but not in the top level menu. In some items I want only an Icon and in the others, normal text.
Can anybody help or point me in right direction?

Is this:
* too easy a question?
* Poorly written?
* a stumper?

The general practice is that top level menus don't have icons ...

Toolbars, however, can.

So you might want to look at VB's toolbar control, which is part of the COmmon COntrols

Strongm,
Are you suggesting that the tool bar would be a replacement (i.e. stuck on the form) to mimic the actions of the form menu bar?. I find my self painted into a corner. I have locked my form to a particular size and now find I do not have sufficient space to adequately spell out top level menu options..but an icon or two would tell the story that a shorter word couldn not.

Please..no suggestion for larger/wider form
