Command-F in My menu - Mac

[Terence Heaford]

I have my own menu in which I have a Find… menu item.

I have applied a shortcut command-F to the menu item.

When I select the menu item with the mouse the script works but when I command-F the menu flashes but nothing happens.

Here is the script.

on menuPick pItemName
   switch pItemName
      case "Categories..."
         open stack "Categories" as sheet
         break
      case "Find..."
         open stack "Find" as sheet
         break
   end switch
end menuPick


Why does the menu not display when I command-F.

All the best
