Reusable Context menu

3
Hi all,
I'm working in application where I need to use a global context menu
I mean menu that will be used in many forms in the application
let's say with these items ( save, print, search )
How can I implement this ?
I have tried using user control but I don't think the right solution
and of course I can't repeate the menus in every form

Pleeeease, tell me how can I do it, I'm in a bad need of the solution

Thanx in advance

I am not sure there is one.
I myself would like to be able to do it, without having to dettach and re-attach it everytime

I think a user control is the right answer, but it won't take away all the work. You'll have to set up events, and then handle them in the forms that you drop this on.

Or, you could build a class that inherits form that has the menu and all it's actions done in the class definition.

Thnx all
I used the secone solution
insertalias said, a component class that inherits from
the ContextMenu
actually, it's not a perfect solution but it helps

Thnx again
