How do I clear the checkmark on a menu in a bevelbutton?

When I first select a BevelButton menu, .MenuValue = 0 and yet no checkmark
is displayed in the menu for item 0.

Subsequent selections of the menu always put a checkmark next to the last
selected menuitem which appears to be .MenuValue

However, though I can change the selection by changing .MenuValue, I cannot
seem to get a menu without any checkmark at all.

Shouldn't -1 be the opening .MenuValue with no selection and -1 return it to
no selection?

Thanks for any assistance you can offer,

Weird but using Francois suggestion and setting menuvalue to -1 seems to do it if you put that in the mousedown

Try this in a pushbutton's mousedown

  me.deleteAllRows
  me.MenuValue  = -1

  me.AddRow "1"
  me.AddRow "2"
  me.AddRow "3"
  me.AddRow "4"
  me.AddRow "5"

and this in it's action

  me.caption = me.list(me.menuvalue)

A few extra things I've noted already
Code like

  me.deleteAllRows

  me.AddRow "1"
  me.AddRow "2"
  me.AddRow "3"
  me.AddRow "4"
  me.AddRow "5"

  me.MenuValue  = -1

will NOT have this effect.
This "disabling the check mark" is sensitive to the order of the code which smells like a bug to me

ONLY

        deleteAllrows
        MenuValue = -1

seems to do it
