I think your question could not be less descriptive. Seriously, try to read it and imagine that you don't know anything about your problem.
From what I could deduce, you want to create some kind of a container with menus in order to access them by index or name ?
If yes, then create a QList of menus ( for index based access ) or a QMap<QString,QMenu*> ( for name based access ), then you could get something like:
QMenu * m = menu_map["main menu"];
But I don't see a reason for doing this. Can you provide more detailed description of your problem ? Maybe there is a better solution.

Yes, I want to work with menus using its name or index.

Don't know if this will help you, but for every menu, you can get a list of it's actions by calling:
QList<QAction*> actions = menu->actions();
QMainWindow menus created in designer are held in QMenuBar, maybe you can get list of all menus inserted in menu bar by "findChildren" method:
QList<QMenu*> menus = mainWindow->menuBar()->findChildren<QMenu*>();
Be sure to read documentation for above methods before using them.
Still, I don't know what do you want to do with such lists.
