How to disable single menu items of a pull down menu?

[dunbarx at aol.com]

Hmmm.. I make a pullDown, and in another button:



on mouseUp
   disable menuitem 2 of  btn "pulldown"
end mouseUp


Click that button a bunch of times.


Now if I make yet another button with;


on mouseUp
   enable menuitem 2 of  btn "pulldown"
end mouseUp


And click it once, the menuItem becomes selectable.

Please note Dr Hawkin's recent post that this command is stackable, so if
you
accidentally disable the menuitem twice if you then issue a single
enable
command the menuitem will remain disabled.

Don't know who to link to old posts
but the Subject was "menuitems
accujmulating extra ( in them?"
