MDI Form ToolStrips

IDE: Visual Studio 2008

Problem: I have a child form, and I want to add a toolstrip. When I
create an instance of the child form and showed the form, I do not see
my toolstrip items on the child form. It appears that the toolstrip
is there, but no text is being displayed for each item in the
toolstrip (looks like an empty toolstrip).

However, when I create an instance of the child form, and show it, I
noticed that my tool strip items are being appended to the mother
forms tool strip. How can this happen, when each toolstrip does not
have the same name.

Also, I noticed that if I do not make this form a child form the
toolstrip items are visable, it only happens when I make this form a
child form.

Help me please.
