Anyone know how to add event handlers to a Menu on the MenuBar component.

I know how to do it on MenuItems but I also want to be able to do it on the root Menu…

for example

File - root menu  
Edit - menuItem  
Cut - menuItem  
Copy - menuItem

I want to assign an event handler to “File” but I can’t see a way of doing it. On menuItem’s you assign them an instance name so that’s easy but you can’t do that to the root Menu… any ideas?
