Menu items...

[Quartermars]

Hello ...
Now here is my question, I would like to post a menu bar as seen in most windows programs, File, Tools, etc.  As I hover over it, I should be able to see the menu items.

Now here is my problem, how do I do this?  THe times I have tried, well sorry I failed, well the compiler indicated a major crash.

Thank you for your help in advance.

object myform as form
     object menu0 as mainmenu
           object menu1 as menuitem
           AutoCheck=True
           Caption="menu_1"
           object menu3 as menuitem
           Caption="menu_3"
           onclick=menuclick3
           end object
           object menu4 as menuitem
           Caption="menu_4"
           onclick=menuclick4

           end object
           object menu2 as menuitem
           AutoCheck=True
           Caption="menu_2"
