([exp1 ],[exp2 ],[exp3 ]) Positive integers or expressions that evaluate to positive integers, that identify a particular menu or menu item. Exp1 identifies the menu number; exp2, the item number.

Comments
MENU CLEAR resets each of the specified items within the open menu in the current window to their default values, as specified when the objects were defined in the Object Dictionary. The menu or menu items do not change in appearance until redisplayed using a MENU DISPLAY command.
If an item in the menu is currently in an invalid state owing to application user input, the MENU CLEAR command that applies to that item clears the invalid state.
Note that when a menu is opened (by a MENU OPEN command), all menu items are set to their default values.
Example
To reset all items in Menu1 to their default values, enter
menu clear Menu1
