SUMMARY

When you create custom menus, you may get a duplicated entry in the menu listing, as well as a missing entry.

The MSMAIL.INI and SHARED.INI files require the following syntax:

   Tag=Mail version;[Menu Name]; [Command Name];...
                

If, when defining a menu, you use the same Tag, it will be repeated in the menu listing.

MORE INFORMATION

A example of duplicate entries is:

   [Custom commands]
   MyCommand=3.0;File;&Run Notepad;0;appexec.dll;notepad; ...
   MyCommand=3.0;File;&Run Calculator;0;appexec.dll;calc; ...
                

This will place Run Notepad under the File menu twice because the tag is not unique.

An example of correct entries is:

   [Custom commands]
   MyCommand1=3.0;File;&Run Notepad;0;appexec.dll;notepad; ...
   MyCommand2=3.0;File;&Run Calculator;0;appexec.dll;calc; ...
