Access 2003 VBA forms

[aerospace/railroad engineer retired]

How do I attach a menubar to a popup form? I know how to create a menubar
and how to assign it to a form but the menubar just floats around in the
application window or it can be docked to the application window but it
desappears whenever the form is in popup mode.

The pop up display mode of a form doesn't make the command bars visible
referenced in the Toolbar, MenuBar and ShortCutMenu properties of the form.
The form is supposed to "pop up" over all the other application windows which
includes the command bars! In fact, if you make the pop up form modal (this
window retains the focus) you won't be able to click on displayed command bar
controls at all. Unfortunately, this means you'll have to rethink the use of
pop up forms.
