I've read that discussion, but in the case of PM I think there's another reason behind it. Imho the Menu API in connection with apps using the carbon api has some bugs, so I don't think it's only PM's fault. I don't expect this to be fixed, because Apple won't put anymore ressources into carbon. Everything goes to develop the cocoa framework and this means using basically Objective-C in the future. Thanks and all the best Matthias
