Thanks that worked. Only other thing was I had to do .Show() on the MenuItem
and .ShowAll() on the Menu.
Another odd thing: In the code generated by the MonoDevelop gui designer it
is creating Actions and ActionsGroups instead of menu items. Then I guess
generating the entire MenuBar using the ActionGroups and Actions. Why are
there two different ways to do it?, and are there advantage/disadvantages to
the differnt ways?
Thanks
