Menu is a subclass of MenuItem so u can add menuitems as well as menus to a menu..
what u need to do is create a view menu ,add "customer", "inventory", etc. to the view menu and then add this view menu to the file menu..
I have pasted the sample code below..
Hope this helps u
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MenuDemo extends JFrame
{
MenuBar menuBar;
Menu fileMenu,helpMenu,viewMenu;
public MenuDemo()
{
menuBar = new MenuBar();
fileMenu = new Menu("File");
viewMenu = new Menu("View");
viewMenu.add("customer");
viewMenu.add("inventory");
viewMenu.add("order");
viewMenu.add("product");
viewMenu.add("invoice");
fileMenu.add(viewMenu);
fileMenu.add("Create");
fileMenu.add("Delete");
fileMenu.add("Update");
fileMenu.addSeparator();
fileMenu.add("Exit");
helpMenu = new Menu("Help");
helpMenu.add("About");
helpMenu.add("Help Topics");
menuBar.add(fileMenu);
menuBar.add(helpMenu);
setMenuBar(menuBar);

}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
MenuDemo menuDemo = new MenuDemo();
menuDemo.setSize(300,200);
menuDemo.setVisible(true);
}
}
