I think I'm going nuts
I have created a menu, its called WINB18 I can see the 4 files (mnx,mnt, mpr and mpx)
If I issue the command, DO WINB18.MPR, all options on the menu work just fine But, if I load the menu from my MAIN.prg, the menu shows, BUT the only options that fire are those setup as a Procedure. All the options listed under the Submenu are greyed out
I've gone to another application I have developed and all is fine with those menus It's only with this one, a new system under development.
For the life of me, I can't see what's different. Can anyone help?
Sytze The main menu is usualy called in the init of your mainform and not from your main.prg Regards Koen

Hi Koen, thanks for trying to assist. My main form does indeed have the DO WINB18.MPR in the Init

Sytze,
The correct, full syntax is:
Do mainmenu.mpr With This, .T.
where mainmenu is to be replaced with your mainmenu name
Regards,
P.S. If that is like that, than upload a. your mainmenu.mpr b. your mainform.scx + mainform.sct

In my apps I don't have a "main" form. I call the menu.mpr in the main prg. No problems. Sytze, have you tried regenerating the menu (in case something went wrong)?

Thank you all for trying to help me. Recap the problem. All sub menus of my mainmenu were greyed out, but not any procedures
All problems solved when I noticed my mainform was set to modal I think I wasted 4 hours on this. The project budget is 176 hours so I should be ok.
Thank you again.

That's how I do it as well, followed by the READ EVENTS.
