Menu needs coaxing

I have a pretty standard window that I've created with a few controls using the Enhanced IDE, win32lib (the one you get with downloading the enhanced IDE). When the window is initially loaded and anytime I shift focus to another window (or program) and then back to my initial window, the menu bar isn't visible. This is going to sound weird, but..... it really is there. If I use the keyboard and key in alt-x where x is an accelerator key for the menu item, then the menu shows up. Or, at least, that portion of the menu. Once I'm focused on the menu bar, I can use the left and right arrows to "reveal" the other menu items. So what I'm looking for is a way to get the menu bars to show up without having the user "just know" that they are there and be forced to use an accelerator key. My guess is that I'm doing something pretty silly to cause this, but I don't have a clue what that might be. If anybody has any guesses, I'd appreciate hearing them. Thanks Mike
