Simple Q: What is the easiest way to identify the parent FRAME associated with a menu. As a simple example, suppose I would like to instantiate a dialog box when a menu item is selected. Constructing a new dialog box requires that a parent frame be identified. If the menu is a class of its own, I need some way to reference the frame wherein the menu resides to create the dialog box. Is there a function similar to getParent that allows you to do so? There must be a clean way to make the connection. Any shared thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Jon Creyts
