I am trying to set the shortcut menu in code. According to the help file the property is settable via vba. I selected a valid menu from the combo in the property so that I was displaying the name of a valid menu, then cut that and pasted it into a string constant - now I have a valid menubar name for that property. But when I try to do the assignment statement it errors with "invalid data type". The data is a string (the right data type) and is verified as the real name of a real menubar that can be manually assigned to the property. Any clues why this is not working? Furthmore if I turn off the "allow default shortcut menus" in the startup properties then I can't seem to set the shortcut menu. Is that just a confusing name and you are really shutting off ALL shortcut menus? I assumed that it would just remove the default shortcut menu but allow you to continue setting the shortcut menus to custom menus. What the heck is going on here? John W.
