I have made hierarchical contextual menus before by appending

However, is there a way to do this with a standard popup menu?
Instead of just
adding rows to popup control on a window, I want to add rows and
add submenus.
However there is no APPEND for popup controls. Any ideas?
In response to another thread in this list, ("Contextual Menus in
Windows") on July 19,
Terry Ford recommended:
Take a look at Phil M's code in the archives at:

This is the best example I have seen so far.
Phil's example includes the use of submenus. I believe it could
solve your problem, too.

Just to add to what Russ mentioned, you are actually creating a
Dynamic popup menu which is quite different from the built-in ones.
You are actually not using the Contextual Menu or Bevelbutton or the
PopupMenu classes but the MenuItem.Popup Method.
You can position your popup wherever you like or where the mouse is
by default. It will not duplicate a true PopupMenu control's menu but
will be more like the BevelButton's or Contextual menu.
All of this requires 2006.
