Sean,
In order to do this, you will have to do some coding yourself.
Basically, you will have to register "listeners" with the parent form which
will be called when the menu items are clicked. When this happens, the
parent form will have to cycle through the listeners, seeing which one
handles the menu item that was clicked.
How you do this is up to you, as there are a number of ways that this
could be designed, but the overall concept is that the child forms would
register with the parent through some general mechanism indicating when a
menu item is clicked.
Hope this helps.

I know I can merge a child forms menu into the MDI parent's mainmenu, but
I would also like to listen for common events fired from the mainmenu that
might be of interest to any child forms.
Is this possible?
