Single event handler for menuwould mean that I'd have about 150 event handlers: Private Sub Menu1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Menu1.Click However, I would like to get the associated form name from a different source and then create a single event handler: Private Sub OpenForm (ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AllMenus.Click In VB2005 I can assign multiple events to a single handler by specifying them in the 'Handles' part, but for 150 items I think this is a bit much. Is there another way to specify a handler to menu items? Like looping through the menus and assign a specific handler? Tia, Martin Martin wrote:

' "for each menu item" code omitted ' as this depends on how you build / define your menus AddHandler theMenuItem.Click, AddressOf OpenForm ' if you build menu dynamically, do this just after creation ' for convenience -- Larry Lard Replies to group please Hi Larry,
Thanks, that did the trick. I appreciate it.
