popup of menu (functionality not correct implemented...)

[Ton Kuypers]

Scott,

MenuHistory is indeed is the function I need, but this doesn't work  
for buttons of type "popup".
Furthermore it is very strange that you would have to supply a number  
instead of the text selected...
I'm displaying data from a database, when a user clicks on a record  
he gets the data displayed and some of the data can be changed using  
pop-up menu's. So when a user clicks, I would first have to find the  
item in the list and set the menuhistory every time the user selects  
another record... Would be much easier when I could popup the menu  
with the text in a field...

If it would work for a regular pop-up menu :-(

Thanks anyway,
