Disabling MenuItems

[Eric Chatonet]

Salut Rob,

It's the reason why I told you that I prefer to use a menu template  
stored into a custom property *without* any "(" , "!c", etc.
Then I put the custom property into a variable and don't worry about  
the current status of any menu item :-)
None item, using this way, can be *already* disabled: I always use a  
*fresh* menu and rebuild it at each call.
It's very fast to disable, put a checkmark and so on (I have some pop- 
up with until 5 rows and hundreds of menu items that need 300 lines  
of code to be built from the template: they appear instantaneously :-)
This way of doing eliminates all kind of error and makes completely  
safe your menus handling.
Just try it!
