Menu in VB 6 (1 Viewer)

How do i add a menu in VB 6. Eg like the one at the top of your browser where you click file, and then options come down?

You use the Menu Editor.

Open your form, then go Tools -> Menu Editor.

But when you add a menu, is there a code you need to type to make more menus come down from clicking on the menu you add. If you simply add a menu then itll just be one menu, but clicking on it wont drag down other options.

No code required.

You are only making one level of menus then. You need to use the Indent button in the Menu Editor to make multiple levels.

You mean you want menu items?

here's how it goes

you create a menu, lets say File

so the name of it is mnuFile and the caption is File

you then click that button it's an Arrow -->

in the list you will see a set of ellipsis after clicking on the arrow
now whatever new menu's you add goes into the File menu
and when you need to make a new menu, you just click the arrow back <--

so in the list it should be like this

File
......MenuItemOfFile
......MenuItemOfFile2
......MenuItemOfFile3

Edit
......MenuItemOfEdit
......MenuItemOfEdit2
......MenuItemOfEdit3
