Types of Menus

Menus are lists of items that end users use to select specific functions or operations. Each item on a menu represents a command or a submenu.
Form Menus: A form menu typically includes standard form-level commands for navigation, editing, and database interaction. Every form runs with one of the following form menus: default, custom, none.
Menu Toolbars: If you create any type of custom form menu module for your form, you also can derive a menu toolbar from that form menu. A menu toolbar displays selected menu items (from the current form menu) as icons on a horizontal or vertical ribbon.
Popup Menus: In addition to one form menu, each form can include any number of popup menus. Popup menus are context-sensitive menus attached to individual canvases and items within a form. You can attach a single popup menu to one or more canvases or items. E ach canvas or item can support one and only one popup menu
Tear-off: A tear-off menu is a menu that end users can drag away from the menu bar and reposition elsewhere on the screen. You can enable tear-off functionality for any menu, provided your window-manager supports this feature.
Debugger menu: The Debugger menu includes three menus: View, Debug, and Navigator.
