There are 8 menu's possible and two of them are reserved for System and Help..So, 6 can be used by the programmer.

Hi Ramu,

<b>Defining the Menu Bar and Submenus</b>

Once in the screen for maintaining the status, click on the expand icon next to the Menu bar field (shadowed in blue), and the system will display the fields to define the menus that will appear in the menu bar.To create a menu bar, you have to enter a name in the Menu bar input field which will identify that menu bar.

Then you have to enter the name for each menu according to the order you want them to appear in the menu bar.<b> You can create up to six menus</b>, although the menu bar can hold up to eight menus and the system automatically includes the System and Help menus.To create menus, the system allows you to use the standard menu bars as models and then to modify the menus and submenus as proposed by the system standards. Of course, you can create completely new menus without using any standard as template.

In the first case, click on the folder with the + sign next to Display standards. The system will display all the usual menus in the standard menu bar.

In the second case, where you want to create your own menus without using standards, click on the Hide standards buttons. The system will clear the fields. At this point, you can write on each field the name for the menus you want to create.

<b>Menu Components</b>

A menu can contain functions, other menus (submenus), and separators. To create components, double click over the menu name. The system will show two columns: Code and Text, with a maximum of <b>15 rows</b>. The following list shows the meaning of these components.

Component Code Text

Function Function code Name of the option as it will appear in the menu

Separator <empty> Position the cursor & from the menu select Edit Insert Separator line

Submenu <empty> Submenu name as it will appear when displaying it

<b>Submenus</b>

To create the submenu components, leave the function column empty, enter a submenu name, and double

click on the submenu text.
