Hello! I have two questions concerning the purebasic menu commands.
A. Does anyone know of a way to recognize an event by clicking on a menu-column header?
That is, if I have a menu column "File" with entries for "Open", "Find...", "Save" and "save as", is it possible to capture an event for clicking on "File"?
Pretty sure I'll need to roll my own, but I wanted to ask just in case!
B. Does anyone know of a way to BOLD or change color on certain menu entries, such as "Find..." on a menu column?
Thank you!
PS - I'd also love to see a short example of the image using version of the menu in use. I don't want to depend on directx if possible.

A good place to start is RS Basic's WinAPI Lib
It's available online too: http://www.rsbasic.de/winapi-library

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.
