Hi Ethan,
Sorry, I misread. There used to be a product and I'm rattling my
brain to remember the name of it. It is exactly what you are looking
for, it was a menu building app that I used in 1994 to load up
applications to users desktops from their Novell network. Black
background, dark blue border... I'll look through some old notebooks I
still keep and see if I kept a reference name for the program...

forgotten about writing those, that used to be such a blast, here this

Hi, Curt,
Thanks for that pointer. I hadn't run across that particular one (but
it's like many others I did run across) - it's more elaborate than
most.
Unfortunately, it's not what I am looking for - what I am after is a
menu *builder* that works from a pre-written "script" that contains
the menu items and such. As I mentioned previously, I would have no
problem whipping up a set of scripts but the person this is for is not
a coder.
Interesting reference, though. Thanks for it.
