- The FoxPro 2.0 Menu Builder has no facility (at least none that I'm aware of)
- to enable menu popup structure to be restored to their states prior to
- selecting from the menu. I have a system which consists of several applica-
- tions that are launched from a rather deep menu structure of popups. When
- an application is terminated, the menu (_MSYSMENU) is restored to its
- original state making it necessary to go through the popup structure again
- in order to select another application from the same menu popup. I've tried
- putting ACTIVATE POPUP (POPUP()) in the clean-up code which is executed when
- a <Quit> is selected and the menu popup structure is restored okay, except
- that when another application is launched from the same popup, a DO seems to
- be executed somewhere for each menu popup that is re-activated. Each
- application is exited by a simple RETURN statement. Is there a way to restore
- a menu popup system (upon application termination) without the DO nesting-level
- being exceeded when another application is launched?
