Hello,

This newsgroup is about vba, not VB.NET.

I would guess that your customization context when you install your menus is
normal.dot (the default). This is bad practice. This is virus-like behavior.
I would guess that you are installing the actions for the menu in the
customization context of your first document. Thus your functionality is
stored in your first document but your menus are installed in the
application.

If you can, create a custom document template for your documents, with your
menus and functions. Then have your users create documents based on your
template. Those documents will have your menus and functions.
