Looking for recommendation on third party control...

I'm looking for a recommendation...

My application's main menu is currently an empty form with a background
image and a mainmen.

I want to change this to a more "visible" menu that fills the form - like a
web drop down navigation bar.

I was hoping that there was a control available that took a menu and
displayed in this style..

Anybody got any pointers/

Regards
Simon

Hi,

You can make a menu owner drawn and customize its appearance.

Thanks Ken

Thats what I do at the moment, to make the menu a little more colourful...
I was hoping somebody somewhere had done the hard work for me, as I don't
have the time at the moment to do it myself...
