I don't think you can. See http://www.orafaq.com/forum/m/170139/67467/?srch=window+menu#msg_170139 where a similar question was asked about the 'help' drop-down menu.

Try this method:

Create menu item with label WINDOW and set the property to Magic Item = Window.
Now make this menu item invisible.

A good idea but unfortunately it didn't work for me.

/forum/fa/3756/0//forum/fa/3757/0/

And when I set my 'WindoW' and 'HelP' to 'visible' I get the following.

Create Window in your menu.

Set Properties.

Menu Item Type:: magic
Magic Item:: window
Command Type:: Null
Visible In Menu:: Yes

Then in menu Start up Code..
SET_MENU_ITEM_PROPERTY('MAIN_MENU.WINDOW', DISPLAYED, PROPERTY_FALSE);
SET_MENU_ITEM_PROPERTY('MAIN_MENU.WINDOW', ENABLED, PROPERTY_FALSE);


It will work.

One More suggestion :
-> Go to form's window propery.
-> change window_style = DOCUMENT.
-> then change modal = YES.

This will make your form modal and hide window menu.
