Are you using Swing or AWT, and is this an application or an Applet?

So which bit of adding an exit button is not working? Creating the button? Adding the button to the menu? Showing the menu? Responding to a click on the button? doing whatever you want it to do when clicked?

Gagan,
Below is some test code for you, I have written an actionListener for capturing your exit click and then kick off the application. I know there is a better way to pull out of application but can not implement. Hope this will help.
//code start
import java.awt.AWTEvent.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class exit implements ActionListener
{
public Frame f;
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)
{
System.out.println("Action performed.");
}
public exit()
{
f = new Frame();
MenuBar mb = new MenuBar();
Menu m = new Menu("Test");
m.add("Exit");
mb.add(m);
f.setMenuBar(mb);
f.setSize(200, 300);
f.setVisible(true);

m.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)
{
System.exit(0);
}
}
);
}
public static void main (String args[])
{
exit e = new exit();

}
}
// code End
