Using iKeyDown(iKeyCode("")), with "DIK_LEFT", "DIK_RIGHT", "DIK_UP" and "DIK_DOWN"...
EDIT: I found psikoTs menu system: http://www.3drad.com/forum/index.php?topic=9107.msg76749#msg76749
It's very good, I'm currently using (my own version of) this method.

No need to roll them eyes it's a valid question, but I think it might have been answered a zillion times before... Not exactly rocket science, but you need a variable to track the bar position and increase and decrease that var with the arrow keys. Then you need a variable to know what menu you're at (main menu, options menu, character menu etc.) this could be a string, so you can just set that sting to the menu you wanna go to.
some pseudo code:
int BarPos;
string currentMenu;
if(currentMenu== Main){
// do some options stuff;
// move bar:
if(iKeyDown(iKeyCode("DIK_UP")) BarPos+=1;
if(iKeyDown(iKeyCode("DIK_UP")) BarPos-=1;
}
if(currentMenu== Options){
// do some options stuff;
// move bar:
if(iKeyDown(iKeyCode("DIK_UP")) BarPos+=1;
if(iKeyDown(iKeyCode("DIK_UP")) BarPos-=1;
}

I'm 'rolling them eyes' because this question is one of those 'how do I make a game' question. It might be valid, but since there are hundreds ways to do it, it doesn't have a solid answer.
