howto: menu system

Hi there!!!

Greetings from mexico.

I was wondering, anyone, could you point me to a source on info about how to do this?

Have you seen, for instance, in Rounbtable, that they designed one utility frame, and then when they do another window, and need the functionality of the buttons in the frame, simply attach that frame to the frame they're working on, at runtime?

I would like to to use this technique to build my menu system, because it grew so big, that i've reached the 64k barrier to the action segment, or otherwise, do you know a bout a design of a good menu system? I'm thinkink in doing some heavy programing to get dinamic menus, that is, menus with buttons in the frame and menu options according to users permissions?
This frame i told you about it, would let me put a utility frame with destinations for reports in windows where i get parameters to the reports, and then let the user send the output to screen, file, printer, etc?
Any pointing to ideas woult be great.

I thank you in advance!!
