I am surprised that this even worked.

the documentation is quite clear that menu bars created vis the Tool Box Menu 
Editor are not shared,
so the activate menu bar of a component form can only be loaded from its own 
stock of menu bars.

if I needed a generic component dialog that "inherits" the host's menu bar,
I would call SET MENU BAR in the host context before calling the component's 
dialog method,
or else Get/SET the menu bar in the form's On Load event.

it simply feels wrong for a component to expect a specific menu bar name in its 
property list.
such implicit linkage, even if it worked, should be discouraged.
the active menu bar of a component should be a menu available locally, or else 
undefined.

if it "stopped working" then it sounds like a bug fix.
