Hi Zlatko,

Just create a new menu. Then, hold the control key and drag existing
menus or menu items to the new menu bar. The control key allows you to
copy the menu item you are dragging rather than dragging it away. I
still sometimes accidentally forget the control key, but then you can
reset the menus using one of the reset buttons somewhere on the
customize menu windows, I forget which one.

I use this method a lot with pop up menus for my datasheets so that a
user can right click and get the sort ascending/descending, some of the
built in filter menus etc (for data sheets, I also always include one of
my own procs on a menu item called "Default Column Widths" which returns
the row and column sizes to the initial size.
