Ok. Here is what I think is a clearer explaination. 

My application requires a feature which allows you to go outside the 
application (store application status and give the impression of background 
process) and capture a screenshot of any screen/form and come back to the 
application with it. Now, to capture a screenshot, there's a button that I 
display on the current form (of an application which the user randomly 
selects). On hitting the button, a menu or a list should pop up giving some 
image editing options to the user. 

In order to achieve the last step, I tried the following 2 methods. 
1. Created a menu resource in my application and tried accessing it via 
DmGetResource and then using FrmSetMenu and EvtEnqueueKey(vchrMenu, 0, 
commandKeyMask), tried to bring up the menu. Didn't work.  
2. Created a list dynamically using LstNewList and tried popping it up. That 
didn't work either. 

What I need to know is -
1. How do I access a menu resource that's in my application and use 
 it in another application?
2. How do I create a list dynamically and associate it with the current form 
irrespective of the application it belongs to?

Thanks.
