One thing that jumps out is a line like:

Command=^C^C^C_INSERT;C:\ICAD2K\LIBSYM\GEN\GEN2-62.DWG;\;;;

Try changing the backslashes to forward slashes
in the "path" portion...IE:

C:/ICAD2K/LIBSYM/GEN/GEN2-62.DWG

The backslash is used for other things in Menus

I sent the missing email to your address. I was using cms@etoolbox.com

Did you check the experience level on the other machines? The menu itens can be configured to appear only in certain experience level. This would explain the red buttons.

Type <options> and select the <general> tab to see the experience level defined.

When custumizing the menu be sure to check the definition of the experience level for each menu item. Click the <options> button in the <custumize> <menu> tab.

I just checked the level and it is set on advanced on all machines.

Im going to test this menu file (icm format) tonight and see if i can find any additional info.

thx for the response.

I have tried extensivly to understand what is wrong with this menu and i have no idea what the issue is. Here is a portion of the code that does not work:

[IntelliCAD Custom Menu File]
nMenuItems=49
[MnuItem-0]
Name=&SCALES
TearOffName=POP1
Command=POP1
FileName=BCADD
Visibility=12
[MnuItem-1]
Name=Graphic Scales
FileName=BCADD
Visibility=130
SubLevel=1
[MnuItem-2]
Name=Engineering G Scales
FileName=BCADD
Visibility=130
SubLevel=2
[MnuItem-3]
Name=1"= 5'
Command=^C^C^C_INSERT;C:\ICAD2K\LIBSYM\GEN\GEN2-62.DWG;\;;;
FileName=BCADD
Visibility=130
SubLevel=3
[MnuItem-4]
Name=1"= 10'
Command=^C^C^C_INSERT;C:\ICAD2K\LIBSYM\GEN\GEN2-63.DWG;\;;;
FileName=BCADD
Visibility=130
SubLevel=3

These are to insert graphical scale items requiring the user to enter the location only.

Now here is some of the code that does work (same file continued):

[MnuItem-18]
Name=Architectural Scales
FileName=BCADD
Visibility=143
SubLevel=1
AddSpacerBefore=1
[MnuItem-19]
Name=1/16"= 1'-0"
Command=^C^C_ZOOM;1/192XP;DIMSCALE;192;
FileName=BCADD
Visibility=143
SubLevel=2
[MnuItem-20]
Name=3/32"= 1'-0"
Command=^C^C_ZOOM;1/128XP;DIMSCALE;128;
Visibility=143
SubLevel=2

Please provide me with a link explaining the purpose of the visibility variable.

thx

Thank you for the input. I spent a couple of hours repairing it and adding additional items. I used the path syntax you suggested and it works great.
