Glad you have a sense of humor!

Quite a bit of coding, involving writing to an MNU file or possibly CUI (don't have 2008), depending on your version of ACAD, but it is possible with MNU's. I've done it. Just don't have the time for such a task.

I'm wanting to make a custom pull down menu. Not wanting to do this on every CAD machine in the office I thought if it would be done with a lisp that would be better. The pull down would be used to run a lisp anyway so why not have it edit the current menu when the lisp is load!

Okay, I want to write a lisp that when it is loaded it will add a pull down menu to the current menu.

You would only need to create one menu, then store it on a network drive then load it with a company lisp at startup.
