The ampersand is placed before the letter that will be underlined in a 
Windows menu, and allows selection of the menu item via keyboard on that OS.

I don't think you need to start your menu over. What it sounds like is 
that the View button script isn't working properly. When you look at the 
button script, is there a case statement for each menu item? Does the 
case statement match exactly the menu item name? Don't include the 
ampersand, any tabs, or other extras when checking for the item's name. 
If the case statements don't match the menu items exactly then the item 
won't be triggered. You could insert a temporary line in the View button 
script to see what's actually being passed in the menupick the parameter.
