I found issue in .NET 2 where MenuStrip is not removed from MDI child window.

How to fix this ?

To reproduce:

1. Run the code
2. Select File / open

Observed: child window contains MenuStrip with File menu item.

Expected: child window should not contain MenuStrip

Code to reproduce the issue:

---- program.cs:

using System.Windows.Forms;
using WindowsApplication1;
static class Program {
static void Main() {
Application.Run(new Form1());
}
}

--- form1.cs

using System.Windows.Forms;
using System;

namespace WindowsApplication1 {
public partial class Form1 : Form {
public Form1() {
InitializeComponent();
}

private void openToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
Form2 newMDIChild = new Form2();
newMDIChild.MdiParent = this;
newMDIChild.Show();

}
}
}

----- form1.designer.cs

namespace WindowsApplication1 {
partial class Form1 {
private System.ComponentModel.IContainer components = null;
protected override void Dispose(bool disposing) {
if (disposing && (components != null)) {
components.Dispose();
}
base.Dispose(disposing);
}

#region Windows Form Designer generated code
private void InitializeComponent() {
this.menuStrip1 = new System.Windows.Forms.MenuStrip();
this.fileToolStripMenuItem = new System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem();
this.openToolStripMenuItem = new System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem();
this.menuStrip1.SuspendLayout();
this.SuspendLayout();
this.menuStrip1.Items.AddRange(new System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItem[] {
this.fileToolStripMenuItem});
this.menuStrip1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(0, 0);
this.menuStrip1.Name = "menuStrip1";
this.menuStrip1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(292, 24);
this.menuStrip1.TabIndex = 1;
this.menuStrip1.Text = "menuStrip1";
//
// fileToolStripMenuItem
//
this.fileToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.AddRange(new System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripItem[] {
this.openToolStripMenuItem});
this.fileToolStripMenuItem.Name = "fileToolStripMenuItem";
this.fileToolStripMenuItem.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(35, 20);
this.fileToolStripMenuItem.Text = "&File";
//
// openToolStripMenuItem
//
this.openToolStripMenuItem.Name = "openToolStripMenuItem";
this.openToolStripMenuItem.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(152, 22);
this.openToolStripMenuItem.Text = "&open";
this.openToolStripMenuItem.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.openToolStripMenuItem_Click);
//
