Problem with contextual menus

I looked at the MenuMadness example included with the developer tools, but the contextual menu it implemented was simply a connection to the main menu.

I'm working on a pure-Cocoa version of the Google Assistant program, and am trying to make a contextual menu wherein any item, when selected, will assume an "on" state, while the others will turn off.

I have the id googleMenu connected to the NSMenu in Interface Builder, and each item in the menu is connected to the following action:

- (IBAction)setGoogleMenu:(id)sender
{
NSString *itemTitle = [sender title];
NSMenuItem *menuItem = [googleMenu itemWithTitle:itemTitle];
[menuItem setState: NSOnState];
}

By all means, this should work. I know the routine gets executed, at the very least. But for some reason the state never gets set. As a test, I've tried adding a menu item in this same code, with no result. It is as if googleMenu never existed at all.

Is there something I'm missing?

Take care,
Andrew Merenbach
