Yes, sorry I didn't reply.

I didn't try it before I found the --file option. I'd like to give it a shot
though (although for some reason I've always had a distaste for xargs, don't
know why).

Here's the command I'm presently using:
${DIALOG:=dialog} --clear \
      --help-button \
      --help-label Sections \
      --ok-label Man \
      --title "$TITLE" \
      --menu "$CAPTION" \
            $W_HEIGHT $W_WIDTH $W_MENU_HEIGHT \
      --file $tempmenu \
      2>$tempdial
