>>I am attempting to create my first ever .NET application in VB 2005 (or whatever version it is that runs in VS 2005). I am dropping a ToolStrip on my form and have added a ToolStripDropDownButton to it, but I can't get the Text to display, only the image is displaying. This must be something obvious that I am missing as I have a sample application which displays the text properly, but I can't see any difference in th eproperties between my app and the sample one.
