A method and apparatus for coupling a user-created window, or object, to menu functions of another application is accomplished once functions of another program have been selected and an attachment menu bar is created.

When one of the selected menu functions is invoked, the system performs the function indicated by the selected function on an object within the user-created object or on the user-created object.
