I have an app which does some dynamic menu changes (one menu changes depending on what view is selected). The menu that gets inserted comes from its own resource. Worked fine in VC6. But in VS2003, the menu displays as a menu bar rather than as a popup. There's an option "view as popup". It lies. It actually inserts a menu item with text called "Context Menu", and makes your menu a submenu of this "Context Menu". If you quit the resource editor in that state, your menu structure has changed. Now if you go back in, and select "view as popup", you get another @#$& menu item called "Context Menu". Yet another reason to hate the VS2003 IDE. Has anyone else seen this behaviour, or have any idea how to change it? -Don.
