ACUCOBOL-GT supports a fully integrated menu bar facility. This allows you to display a main menu across the top of the screen, with optional pull-down submenus. Each menu item acts much like a function key, returning an exception value to your program. You decide how you want your program to respond to each exception value.
An individual menu item can be disabled when it's not appropriate for a user to choose that item. At your option, a menu item can be marked to indicate that it has been selected. Submenus can be divided into sections with separator bars. Shortcut keys can be assigned to menu options and displayed next to menu text.
You control when a menu bar is displayed. You can remove a main menu whenever you like, and replace it with a different one.
