Adding Menu Items in code

Hi There, I'm trying to add menu to my main form and am having no luck! Seems like I'm missing a step, but what? int catId = mainMenuManager.Categories.Add("xxxx"); ParentBarItem menuBar = new ParentBarItem(); menuBar.CategoryIndex = catId; menuBar.ID = "zzzz"; menuBar.Text = "test"; mainMenuManager.Items.Add(menuBar); mainMenu.Items.Add(menuBar);

Hi, A ParentBarItem represents a dropdown submenu (please refer to our User's Guide in Tools\Docs\User's Guide folder) which itself needs to be added to a Bar instance. So, you will have to also do this: Bar mainMenuBar = new Bar(); mainMenuBar.BarStyle = BarStyle.IsMainMenu|...; mainMenuBar.Text = '..."; // This will add an empty main menu bar to your form mainMenuManager.Bars.Add(mainMenuBar); // Then create a new instance of a ParentBarItem as in the code above and add it to your mainMenuBar. mainMenuBar.Items.Add(parentBarItem); Regards, Praveen
