The code : InsertMenu(sub, -1); SetItemCmd(main, item, 0x1B); SetItemMark(main, item, subID); Works fine for an application, but doesn't seem to work for a DA. 3) Advise needed: I've developed a DA which works fine on a SE, but bombs on a IIci (ID=11). In general, what type of things should I look for to ensure the DA works on all platforms? I'm still a novice at mac programming, so any advice/help would be appreciated. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Marc Lesure / Arizona State University / Tempe, AZ "Between the world of men and make-believe, I can be found..."
