Tim,

>I am having some problems merging MDI child MenuStrips with parent MenuStrips. I have gone through the MSDN examples and cannot see where I am going wrong. In the past I have been able to merge menus in .NET 1.x, but have not tried merging with MenuStrips in 3.5 so I don't know if there is a different procedure in MM .NET or if I am just missing something in general.

Are you actually getting an error when trying this or do the menu strip items just not merge? Have you seen this link?
