Darn, I lost my whole post. Don't know what happened. Trying again.
What is a Sunday without 10 hours of futile programming 
As I mentioned, I am trying to put menu option text and click commands in the same place, in this case in a form method, looking like this:
Visual Fox Pro
* Method "Set_up_menu" in form "frmMainmenu"
Local ix, ixxx, lnButtonHeight, lnButtonWidth, lnRecCnt, lnContTop, lnContLeft, lnTopPart, ;
lcClick1, lcClick2, lcClick3, lcClick4, lcClick5, lcClick6, lcClick7, lcClick8, lcClick9
Store 0 To lnRecCnt
lnContTop = 200 && Top of container
lnContLeft = 500 && Left of container
* lnButtonHeight = 30 && Height of buttons
lnButtonWidth = 0 && Will become width of all butttons
lnBtwButtons = 15 && Distance between buttons as well as between buttons and top/bottom of commandgroup
lnTopPart = 60 && Distane between top of container and top of commandgroup
lcFrmBackColor = "RGB(211,223,254)"
lcCntBackColor = "RGB(205,200,245)"
lcCmgBackColor = "RGB(191,166,191)"
lcCmdForeColor = "RGB(255,255,255)"
lcCmdBackColor = "RGB(0,0,100)"
lcLblForeColor = "RGB(0,0,0)"
*
* CREATE CURSOR BUTTON GROUP
*
Create Cursor curCommandGroup (ButtonCaption c(25)) && Max 25 characters, max 9 menu options.
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<')
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<Applications')
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<')
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<')
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<Hardware')
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<')
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<')
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<Settings') && This must be next to the last menu option.
Insert Into curCommandGroup Values ('\<Exit') && This must be the last menu option.

The file that is called from the method is twsmainmenu.prg (I have changed the names a little and cleaned up here and there). It looks like this:
Visual Fox Pro
* twsmainmenu.prg
LPARAMETERS lcClick1, lcClick2, lcClick3, lcClick4, lcClick5, lcClick6, lcClick7, lcClick8, lcClick9, lnRecCnt
LOCAL ixx &&, lcMyClass
* SET TEXTMERGE TO Memvar lcMyClass Noshow
* SET TEXTMERGE ON
*
DEFINE CLASS clCommandGroup AS CommandGroup
*
ButtonCount = lnRecCnt
*
PROCEDURE Click
DO CASE
FOR ixx = 1 TO m.lnRecCnt
CASE This.Value = EVALUATE(m.ixx)
EVALUATE( 'm.lcClick' + LTRIM(STR( m.ixx )))
ENDFOR
ENDCASE
ENDPROC
ENDDEFINE
*SET TEXTMERGE TO
*SET TEXTMERGE OFF
*RETURN m.lcMyClass
I know that you had "\" and "\\" and "textmerge" and stuff, and I tried it, but still did not get the click event to work. The reason I do not call a procedure, but rather a prg file, from the form method is that an error message eons ago told me that I could not define a class within a procedure. And, still, your code has a define class within a procedure. I am confused about that, but it does not matter, because these days, it is a constant state of my mind.
The only reason I do not cry at this stage is that I am a man, and men do not cry 
Any way to get the click events to work based on what I have, with appropriate changes, of course?
Thanks for you immense patience.
