mainmenu in a mdi child

[ESTAN]

Hi, I have a mdi application where the mdi childs can not be maximized. Now i like to have a mainmenu in the mdi child, but it seems ok in vs but at run time the mainmenu of the mdi child is added to the mainmenu of the mdi parent. How can I keep the mainmenu in the mdi child? Thanks!

Not supported. The menus in the child forms get merged with the menu in the MDI Parent form. There is no option to put the menus in the MDI Child forms.

You could consider using the ContextMenu control. This you can add to each mdi child form separately. For all intents and purposes the same, just looks different. Johan

My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.
