what I need to know is how to transfer this list of applications to the 'user' version of menudrake, so I can add them to the user menu.
hey Margot,
if you start menudrake as user there is an option to "Use system administrator settings"
in the actions > change-style tab
HTH. ronald
Thanks for the thought, but the 'system administrator' style has even less on it than the 'all applications' style that I've been using!
"update-menus -v" generated some errors, I wasn'nt sure what to due
about them. I did some searching and found a post on MandrakeExpert
list archives by James Sparenberg heres a link.

My problem under the file /home/mike/.menu/menudrakeentry was similar to below.
?package(menu): needs="fluxbox" section="Fluxbox/Styles/usr/" icon="applications_section.png" title="" charset="utf8"
The title="" was my problem so I (knowing this is not the right way) looked at other entries guessed on what it should be so I used editer and changed title="" to title="share" saved the file and ran "update-menus -v" again and got all my menus back.
Check your /home/Margot/.menu/menudrakeentry file and if you have a missing title="" line post back and perhaps someone on list may have the correct entry for that particular line?
Thats if, you have the same problem as I had.
Thanks, but that isn't the problem. Perhaps I'm not explaining myself clearly... 2 snapshots attached, user and root versions of menudrake. The root version contains the list of available applications, the user one does not. I want to add some of these applications to the user menu, not the root menu - pointless having them on the root menu as I never log in as root. How do I get the available applications list into the user version of menudrake so I can then add them to the user menu?
