menus in office style

Hi,

Is there an easy way in VB.NET to create menus that hide
the least often used items automatically (like the menus
in MS Office do)?

TIA,

Kris

Are you sure the ML supports hiding of least-used items (I am not sure).

The Magic Libarary is a commercial product now. Nevertheless the old free
version is still available:

Was I sane when I posted that? hehe. Yes, that's a better idea, .NET
framework intellisense in a newsreader/poster.
