How about adding one item and use the Load statement to load more items during run-time, this is the most used method for these kind of problems.<br />
<br />
Create a menu item with index 0 and use Load mnuname(1).. Load mnuname(2) etc to load more items.

another option is to use a set number of recent files, and change the caption and visible property at run-time to control the names and how many are shown.

There is an Win API function that is AppendMenu that lets you insert a menu item on a menu. Thought this function needs that you supply it with the menu Handle. To get the menu handle you can use the GetMenu Win API function. This function will return you the handle. My advise is for you to get an Win API reference and see the help about these functions.

Add a item to a menu at runtime

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
