Creating menus

Making menus work

Now that you have working menus, you must make them available to your users. Following is a list of rules for usage.

You must create a search drive to the directory where the menu files exist. Search mappings can be created in container, profile, or user login scripts.
Users must have at least Read and File Scan rights to the directory where the menu files exist.
NMENU uses temporary files. You must create a permanent drive mapping assignment to a directory where the temporary files will be used.
Users must have at least Read, File Scan, Write, Create, and Erase rights to the directory where the temporary files will be stored.

You can simplify management of the menu system by keeping all menu files in one place, such as SYS:MENUS. Menus are even easier to manage if the temporary files are kept in one place, such as SYS:MENUS\TEMP.
