| Hi,
Not sure what kind of security checking you are doing in order to
determine if the menu is enabled or not. If it is based on a user id or
a group for example...you should use the PFC security that is
associated. Easy to maintain(using the PFC Security application) and
one line of code is all that is required in order to enable this
functionality.
However, if the security checking you are doing is of some other sort,
I think the only way you can really do that dynamically enough, is to
set boolean values for each menu option and then enable disable the
menu based on that. Using a string array to name a menu, can't be
done..they are completely different "data" types.
Hope this helps.
If you do find a way to do what you are doing, i'd like to know! lol
