        That sounds like a somewhat backwards design. If you want the menu  
item's Hit event and the button's Hit event to do the same thing,  
then they should both be calling a common method. Typically the best  
place for such a common event would be the form. In cases where the  
same process needs to be triggered by several forms, the best place  
for such a method would be the application object.

        An example of this would be on the SimpleFormWithBizobj. You can  
either select a menu item to save your changes, or click on the  
toolbar button. Either one will call the form's save() method, which  
knows how to start the save process.
