Maybe the TMenuItem - OnClick event works for you?

Unfortunately not!

OnClick is called A F T E R a menu item is displayed and clicked.

Pascal
use actions and action lists and link them to your menu items. After
that use the onupdate of the action.

No (and yes). But Groffy was talking about the OnClick event of MAIN-
MENU item. The one on the top bar. The one that's always visible. When
catching that one you still have time to change the sub-menus before
that sub-menu is opened.

Yes, sorry, you are right.

In the meantime i also realized that the OnClick-Event of the Main-
Menu item ist the right place to do this!
Thank you.
