Menus only call event handlers, so using a menu should have no effect
at all.
Since this is a detail form, you'd probably want to pass the calling
form as the parent. Am I correct that you named your form class
'MainForm' within the LotsMfrm module? Then the call would be:
Lotfrm =LotsMfrm.MainForm(self)
If you're still having differences, it's not the use of a menu; it
would be the menu handler code. Please post that if you need further
help.
