    So I started a VB project with a main form, and added a menu strip to the form. As I continued, I added a tab control with six tab pages. I then realized (duh) the potential folly of using a central menu strip with multiple tab pages. So seeking your input/wisdom; do I: 1) place a dedicated menu strip on each tab page: 2) keep a central menu strip at the top of the form AND dedicated menu strips on each tab page; 3) use a central menu strip for the form, and then programmatically enable/disable menu items based upon the active tab page; or 4) do something else (like using an UI alternative to tab pages)?

    Pound to fit, paint to match
