Before I get flamed for the obvious mistake, I will correct it.
number = ItemAddress(main_menu[0], number)->NextSelect;
if (number == NULL)
number = MENUNULL;
This seemed to take care of the problem I experienced, but now I am asking
myself how do you select multiple menu choices? I tried a few things
such as SHIFT-RMB LMB, LMB... In Browser one can multiple select files
with SHIFT-LMB, but is multiple selection supposed to be a feature of
menus?
