never had so many items! But this may help: menus with 100 items are not
practical. Think of using an index palette (like the one in the help menu of
your mctools menubar (win) or mac menu). Another trick is to subdivide those
into submenus (hierarchical menu) - I got some nice examples in my script editor
(i think you are capable of finding the code by the level of your questions -
some. Lastly, avoid menu commandskeys (save/s) because they tend to screw up
some '-' menu items that follow (watch for those, i mean) - remove all
optional characters from the menu and retry). I've never had a problem with
a 100 items + many many subitems... </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

Windows is not a Mac. Now, after Exchange, Im stuck with Lotus notes - it sucks
and you can't even edit icons "intuitively" or at all! ;((</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<P>Hello to all. This is my first post here. Any help is appreciated.</P>
<P>1. Do you ever notice that popup menus that have more than 100 items do not
return the selected item every time? Espectially items near the bottom of the
list? Any workarounds?</P>
<P>2. Do you ever notice that printing a second page can sometimes interrupt
the printing of the first page? I did not see a "Wait until the printing is
done " command. Is there one?</P>
<P>3. Do you ever notice that copying and pasting an icon for a file or folder
is easy on the Mac, just pasting into the "Get Info" box? Isn't there an easy
way to do it on Windows?</P>
<P>4. Do you ever notice that unlocked files on the CD turn to locked files
even after you drag them to the hard disk? (I know there is a Shell() command,
but it doesn't work on Windows ME. I just cannot find a workaround. </P>
