Ricardo and Michael: While I really like the class and data driven methods I want to stress that I have a working menu. That menu is installed on terminal services and I don't want to update terminal services.
Updating terminal services involves stopping the service, installing the update and then restarting the service. This is a problem when there are 30+ users and three or four terminal servers. Thanks for your help.
