What you are looking for is a system called Automenu. It is highly configurable but keeps the menu screen simple: 8 menu entries per menu screen with 8 menu screens active from one batch file. The right/left action of the cursor or mouse move you from menu screen to menu screen. The up/down action of the cursor or mouse moves you from menu selection to menu selection. To select a menu option, press 1-8, F1-F8, or highlight the option using the up/down cursor and hit or use the mouse and click. You can even password encrypt menu options and have yes/no options when you call a selection. I used to use this system and found it really slick. We used it for our network interface for a long time. You can have one menu call up another set of 8 menu screens and then return to the original system. Quite functional. I unfortunately don't have this anymore, and so can't provide it. However, it is quite popular on the bulletin boards and can't imagine that you couldn't find it.... Good Luck! -- Guerry A.
