There are a few ways to do it.  You can create a lightbar menu to do it or you could use a traditional menu and change the menu prompt to use the #V mci code to create a list of options.

I created a quick "boxmenudemo.mnu" that gives an example of the second option for you that you can download from /downloads/prealpha on the mysticbbs.com website.  Make sure you go into Menu Settings (/S) which is where you'd place the options.

There is a reference here on the MCI code used:
