menus and MDI

[fenris]

I am having an odd "problem"?? I have an mdi form which acts as the container to my mdi children. One of the child forms has a menu on it. When that child form is opened, it's menu replaces the containers menu. Now this would be pretty cool if the child's menu was appended to the containers menu, but it doesn't. How do I get it to behave, or simply stay on the child?


Any ideas... Troy Williams B.Eng.

If the MDI child form has a menu, it replaces the menu of the MDI container form.

So you have to make the menu of the MDI child form look like a combination of the parent and the child, if that's what you want.

Add the parent's menu to the child form and disable any sub-menus (found on parent form) of the child form that should not be allowed when focus is on the child.
