Sorry about inadvertently leaving out the ON MENU FN doMenu 
statement. I clipped this example from a much larger piece of code.

Mel Patrick very kindly e-mailed me an example of a hierarchical 
popup, and interestingly the hierarchical submenu does not have a 
corresponding CNTL resource. Mel's code is heavily commented, but is 
quite long and somewhat difficult for me to understand.

What's frustrating is that in the example I posted the popup appears 
to function, but any attempts to get it to work prove deceptively 
elusive.
