Hi all

I set up a Group Bar style menu a while back using Razzak's great model.
I'm now trying to create a new one for a client and add to it the ability to
using Alt + letter to bring down an option.

In all other menu styles in R:Base that support this (tree view, design menu
bar, drop down menu buttons), R:Base goes by "level". In other words
consider this menu:

&First Choice
  Sub &1
  Sub &2

&Second Choice
   Sub &1
   Sub &2
   &Final sub

where & represents what get's underlined.  In most menus, pressing Alt + F
drops down the choices under the MAIN MENU choice, First Choice.  Then you
can press a 1 to select a sub-choice under it.

With a group bar menu, pressing Alt + F does TWO things: it brings down the
choices under First Choice AND it executes the choices under the sub-choice
Final Sub!  Is this a bug that others can replicate?  As things stand now,
EVERY option in the ENTIRE menu, main choices plus those under it, would
have to have unique letters or numbers, limiting total number of choices to
36 unless we add in special characters.

I find this BOTH in 7.1 and 7.5.
