Sajid,
I came across your post and I too, am having the same problem.
Did you ever come to a conclusion on this? Were you able to dynamically
import an XML doc and then add a listener to the MenuBar?
I have the menu coming in without a problem. I just can't trigger an
action when selecting an item from the menu...
Thanks!!!
