Re: Could you please help me figure out what i'm doing wrong?

Hi Damian. Is there a way to nmake the menu items variable like a wild card. 
I mean, if you have more than three items, but you want the library to 
reflect that your menu item numbers are subject to change, can you do that, 
or do you have to modify the menu library each time you want to change the 
number of menu items? Thanks, and I hope that makes sense.

Hugs from Jodie and kisses from Tiger.
