Hi there i just started using sony vegas 12 and i am making a small movie. I just wanted to create a dvd menu at the start before the movie plays. Things like play, special features etc . Dose anyone know any good software which i could do this in? and then import it to sony vegas? Thanks again for all the help
 
Does it not give you the option to do that when exporting as a DVD in Sony Vegas?

I know that even some entry level Non-Linear Editing packages, such as iMovie have that now, so I'd be surprised if Vegas doesn't.
 
What I'm saying is that pretty much any modern video editing software likely has DVD creation built into it, even many of the free ones that come bundled with computers.

I've not used Sony Vegas, but having just looked at their website, the latest version 12 has the following feature listed:

Professional DVD layout and design
Author menu-based and single-title DVD and Blu-ray Disc projects using preset backgrounds, motion menus, buttons, and effects. In addition to these presets, you can import your own layered Photoshop® (PSD) files for use as backgrounds, buttons, and graphics. Enable your DVD content to play back in a loop, hold, or time out at the end of a scene.


So you should have everything you need right there.
If its all a bit over your head though, perhaps look at some of the more simple pieces of editing software.
 
I've never used Vegas to author DVDs but instead use Adobe Encore which you may want to take a look at (and at the same time convert to Premiere).
