That sounds like a useless feature to me, but I don't know.

Why clutter up a simple menu with all that stuff.  Instead just stick it all
in a *.CMD file where it belongs and then use the FC/2 function key to run the
*.CMD file.

Oh wait a moment, I see what you are trying to do.  You want it to Create a
DeskTop Object of some highlighted file.  Yes that is already hard coded into
FC/2 Alt-F6.

Sheesh.. You mean you have to put all that stuff in a menu.  You've been
working too hard.  You better get FC/2 quick. (again)

     Thanks and Good Luck,        Andy Roberts
