Thanks for the thought Bob. I'm such a Mac person that I neglected to think of
that; also, as part of that myopia I dislike having the menus on the Window's
real-estate. Apple got it right. M$ did not. IMHO!

I have thought for a long time that Menus in Rev/LiveCode should actually be a
special kind of object unto themselves, not a group of objects set as a
background. However, consider Windows, where menus are a part of the window
itself, and you will begin to see why it almost has to work this way.

Thanks Jacqi. It's been ages since I've worked with HC, but I question that
menus would have been in backgrounds. They would have been in stack scripts the
majority of the time. I think; although I can see how implementing menus from
background scripts might have been on some use.

Hi John,
So this is a known anomaly. Unfortunately both the source and target stacks use
Menus with the same name; something that I should have realized would be a
problem, but until I started moving cards around the problem was not apparent.
Maybe I can change one of the names without loosing
Take a note of the name of the menu 'group' from the card of the stack you wish
to be copied... lets say group "menuBar 1"
Copy the card to the 'target' stack...
Then delete the group "menuBar 1"
If it is still as clear as 'mud'... I can send you a stack to show you...
