I'm a little confused here by your replay, Tim. I think of U2
as being a large set of very sophisticated macros, a few of
which may do similar things to some of the functions in your
enhanced menus, but U2 does not alter the menus. Your enhance
menus programmes alter the appearance and contents of the menu
choices. True, enhance is not as sophisticated as U2, but
sometimes all one wants to do is something simple, and if there
is a menu option that does it, well why not use it.
In any case, I certainly did not mean to suggest that Enhance was
a substitute to U2, for it certainly is not that.
Am I reading this correctly? I think I am....

I would guess that almost nothing in the MNU and DLG files I submitted would run afoul of a custom cmd line routine - though my "package" also included a U2 file with some cmd customizations etc., that are probably NOT compatible with other customizations.
