I understand the madness with menus. I also found a very simple solution.
When you can't edit the menu choose the menubar group in the inspector. Then
uncheck "Behave like a background" This will allow you to edit the menubar. Be
sure when you're finished with your editing that you recheck "Behave like a
background"
WOW I can finally help someone in this group. That's a first for this newbie!
