Problems with executing customized Run-Time menu from a sub-vi imported from the main vi.

I am having trouble executing Run-Time menu from the sub-vi.

Currently my main vi program, which is the first thing that I open up to acquire data from different sources (i.e. dll’s, scanners etc.) opens up a number of sub-vi’s.
I have created several sub-vi’s, which are opened from the main vi’s customized Run-Time menu that I have created (i.e. dsp file). I am using the open panel.vi to open other sub-vi’s. I don’t have any problems opening any number of sub-vi’s through the main vi’s menu.
I would also like to have the option to open other sub-vi’s from any sub-vi’s menu. I succeeded in exporting the Run-Time m
enu from the main vi to the sub-vi using the property node properties however nothing happens (I hear a beeping sound) when I click on the sub-vi’s menu. I don’t know what I am doing wrong. I would really appreciate it if someone can attach a sample code using Run-Time menus on sub-vi’s imported from the main vi.

Thanks

In my question above I misstated the Run-Time menu file name. It should be *.rtm file.
Thanks

I don't actually have any VIs like this. It might be easier to take the menu and just add it to the VI during development. Then it will always be there. It might be easier than doing this with Property Nodes.
