Actually, you can share groups from a mainstack to any of its substacks.

Which is exactly what I want to do--but how?

  I created in the main sack, but it doesn't paper when try to use the menu
object->place , it isn't there as an option.  I tried "place group mcp_menu
of car 1 of stack mcp onto this card" but it couldn't resolve it.

You and Ben are right, I misspoke. I was thinking of setting the menubar of a stack. If you're on a Mac then that works; if you're on Windows then you do need to reproduce the menu on the substack in order to place it.

In the message box:

  set the menubar of stack "mySubstack" to "Menubar 1"

The actual group doesn't appear on the card, which is why it doesn't work on Windows. On a Mac the system menu will show the correct menu.
