Question: If I use NewMenu to create a menu, SetControlPopupMenuHandle to associate it with a popup menu, kControlPopupButtonOwnedMenuRefTag to tell the control that it owns the menu and presumably should dispose it, do I need to insert the menu in the menu list ( as recommended by http://developer.apple.com/qa/tb/tb42.html )? Will the control delete the menu from the menu list if it is inserted?

- you won't need SetControlPopupMenuHandle if you use SetControlData with kControlPopupButtonOwnedMenuRefTag. They both do the same thing.

- no, you don't need to insert the menu into the menu list. I think the popup button control has actually always inserted the menu for you if it didn't find it in the menulist already.

- if the menu is already inserted, the control should leave it there
