If you are trying to make 3 Activities with the same menu, you can make a abstract base Activity that implements the menu and then extend that with your 3 concrete Activities.

public abstract class ActivityWithMenu extends Activity {
    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // add your code here
    }
    @Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
        // add your code here
    }
}

Then in another Acitivity class, you can create the 3 different activities, something like:

public class DetailsActivity extends ActivityWithMenu {
    // add your implementation here - the menu will already be taken care of in the base class
}

This way, you have 1 common menu for 3 activities. I hope that helps.
