mdilist ownerdraw

Hi group,

I was wondering if anyone has ever done this before, I've got a working
ownerdrawn menu the only thing I can't get to work is to ownerdraw the items
the get automaticaly created in a mdilist. I thought if I'd handle the click
event of the menuItem with the mdilist property and then iterate true it's
collection of MenuItems and dynamicaly add the handlers used for my drawitem
and measueritem it "could" work but it doesn't otherwise I wouldn't be
posting this question. Has anyone done this before?

Thanks in advance

Greetz Peter

This is my code used in the clickevent (which even doesn't get fired when I
click the menuItem):
Dim obj As MenuItem
For Each obj In MnuSchermenOpen .MenuItems
obj.OwnerDraw = True
AddHandler obj.DrawItem, AddressOf MdiListDraw
AddHandler obj.MeasureItem , AddressOf MdiMeasure
Next

The How to page: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7aw8zc76(VS.80).aspx walks through the creation of MDI child forms. It includes instructions to set the property MdiList to maintain a list of open MDI child windows. However, I can't find the MdiList property in the properties panel.
