Strange Context Menu Behavior Please help

I have a context menu associated with a tray icon. On the context menu, I
have a menuitem that is populated with sub menuitems at run time. When the
user right-clicks the tray icon I populate the sub menuitems with the
following code:

Private Sub cmTray_Popup(By Val sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles cmTray.Popup

miPresets.MenuI tems.Clear()

Dim rb As New Windows.Forms.R adioButton

Dim mip As New MenuItem

For Each rb In gbPresets.Contr ols

If rb.Tag <> "" Then

mip.MenuItems.A dd(rb.Text & " - " & rb.Tag, AddressOf mi_Click)

End If

Next

miPresets.Merge Type = MenuMerge.Add

miPresets.Merge Menu(mip)

miPresets.Text = "Presets"

End Sub

This code works the first two times the context menu is popped up. After
that, the sub-menu items never appear again.

Can anyone help with this?

Thanks,
PJ

Does the code get executed a 2nd time? Add breakpoints and watch the variables.

No, each time I right-click on the tray icon the code is executed once.
