Missing MacNail Menu

Problem

'MacNail (McN) menu doesn't show'

Diagnosis

First, make sure the Est/acct/cc/shed manager is open! That is what puts up the menus.

If they close the Mgr and then cancel, it will still remove the menus from MacNail construction management software. The solution for that is to quit or exit, and then reopen the Manager .

Solution

SMALL SCREEN: if they're using a small screen (Classic, Plus) with Multifinder or Syst. 7, it may just be hidden. Have them drag across the menubar with the mouse down to show it. If they want, send them the 'short menus' disk

Windows: could also be that they are opening a manager in a later vsn of XL than the one they are running, in which case the mgr will contain gibberish. Compare test in mgr with your healthy mgr.

EARLY VERSIONS: If using version 2.6 or earlier, there aren't any MacNail menus--they were added with MacNail 3.0
