Hi,

I am developping an application with Visual Basic and I want to perform a menu using the menu editor.
I don't have the documentation which explains the different properties of the window editor.
What is the meaning of following caracteristics :

- Name
- Index
- HelpContextID
- Checked
- Enabled
- Visible
- WindowList

Deep explanations or examples will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your answer.
 
Dear Sir...
In the menu editor do the following:
1- in the name field specify the name that your application will use to access that menu object. Note that every menu item such as File, Open, Close, etc. should have a name that allow you to control it from your application at run time.
2- in the caption field specify the name that will appear to the user such as File or Open.
3- the checked will put a mark in front of the menu item.
4- the enabled will allow the menu item to work. if it is not enabled the menu item will appear as dimmed.
5- For the Visible property it will allow the menu item to dissappear from the menu if it is false.
6- If you are planning to use an array of window items then you should give an index number for that menu item.
For the other properties I am sorry.

Good Luck
 
Look up Menu Editor in the help files. It is all there. Thanks and Good Luck!
