I've found a way to Right-Justify a Menu Bar item for Visual Basic applications and thought some of you might like to know. If you already knew or don't care, sorry to bother you. I like the way many Win apps have thier HELP selection to the far right of the menu bar, as in: _________________________________________________________________ | File Edit Help | —————————————————————– but I could not figure out how to do it using the Menu Design Window. Here's what I did and it seems to work fine. Using the Menu Design Window, my final top-level menu item Caption: I named &HHelp. After saving and making an .EXE I then used PC Tools hex editor to change this caption. I changed the "&" to the BS character (HEX 08), and the first "H" to an "&". Saved it, ran it, and thats it. I hope you may find this useful. There are 2 Replies.
