Hi,

I've tried all that! Still doesn't work.

If I create a new menu from the menu builder in a new stack all is 
fine, but I can't make the one I have now work correctly. I have 
checked the spelling, but anyway it must be correct since I get the 
warning dialog if I change it to something other than "Preferences" 
or "Preferences...".

As far as I can tell there are no spurious characters after the last 
line of the items list, also the warning dialog tends to support this.

Thanks a lot
All the Best
Dave
