RE: Menubar problems

[booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

I thought I answered the question.. Brain flat I guess.  Windows and OS/2 
implemented this differently.  The book is correct for OS/2, I believe.


This code works for me:


...
     A                                      MOUBTN(*ULD ENTER)  
     A          R MENUBAR                   MNUBAR  
     A            MNUFLD         2Y 0B  1  2  
     A                                      MNUBARCHC(1 PULLFILE '>File ') 
 
     A                                      MNUBARCHC(2 PULLEDIT '>Edit ') 
 
     A                                      MNUBARCHC(3 PULLVIEW '>View ') 
 
     A                                      MNUBARCHC(4 PULLHELP 'He>lp ') 
 
     A          R PULLFILE                  PULLDOWN  
     A            @FILE          2Y 0B  1  1PSHBTNFLD((*NUMCOL 1))  
     A                                      PSHBTNCHC(1 '>Save' ENTER)  
     A                                      PSHBTNCHC(2 'Save >As' ENTER)  
 
     A                                      PSHBTNCHC(3 'S>pool File' 
ENTER) 
     A          R PULLEDIT                  PULLDOWN  
     A            @EDIT          2Y 0B  1  1SNGCHCFLD
