WMENU-POPUP

The WMENU-POPUP function displays a pop-up menu. The menu is automatically removed after the user has selected an item from the menu. The user response is treated as if the user had chosen an item from the standard menu bar.

WMENU-POPUP is asynchronous and therefore it should be followed by an ACCEPT statement that waits for user input in order to intercept user choice.
