Add a menu item and a sub-menu to the main menu to the form.
Add a picture box to the form and set its visible property to False.

Add the following code to a general module (.BAS).(API Functions)
=================================================

Public Declare Function CreateCompatibleDC Lib "gdi32" (ByVal hdc As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function CreateCompatibleBitmap Lib "gdi32" (ByVal hdc As Long, ByVal nWidth As Long, ByVal nHeight As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function SelectObject Lib "gdi32" (ByVal hdc As Long, ByVal hObject As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function BitBlt Lib "gdi32" (ByVal hDestDC As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, ByVal nWidth As Long, ByVal nHeight As Long, ByVal hSrcDC As Long, ByVal xSrc As Long, ByVal ySrc As Long, ByVal dwRop As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function ModifyMenu Lib "user32" Alias "ModifyMenuA" (ByVal hMenu As Long, ByVal nPosition As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long, ByVal wIDNewItem As Long, ByVal lpString As Any) As Long
Public Declare Function GetMenu Lib "user32" (ByVal hwnd As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function GetSubMenu Lib "user32" (ByVal hMenu As Long, ByVal nPos As Long) As Long

Add this code to the form load event.

Picture1.Picture = LoadPicture(app.path & "\" & "CUT.BMP")
Dim D As Long, DU as Long
Dim H As Long
D = CreateCompatibleDC(Picture1.hdc)
H = CreateCompatibleBitmap(Picture1.hdc, 16, 16)

Dim P As Long
P = SelectObject(D, H)
DU = BitBlt(D, 0, 0, 16, 16, Picture1.hdc, 0, 0, &HCC0020)
