If your are talking about MENU BAR inside your form...
======================================================
To make menu appear on a user form, the following shall be done.

1. Open the menu (modify menu), the menu gets opened with the wizard... then ...
Choose from the system menu... View...GeneralOptions... Select Top-Level Form... Click OK

2. Again from the system menu ... choose ...
Menu... Generate... Generate
This will generate the menu mpr file

3. Now open the main form.
Set in the properties,
ShowWindow = 2-As top level form

In the InitEvent of the form.. put the code
DO myMenu.MPR WITH THIS

4. Compile and run

Also you can create short-cut pop up menus.
==========================================
That is when you right click an object, a popup menu can be made to appear to help the user pick right choices. If this is what you want...

The Visual FoxPro catalog contains several shortcut menu classes in the Menus folder (if you want to use them.. in case). You can post again if you need help on this. ramani :-9
