Probably a stupid question, but I can't seem to find how to
Enable/Disable Submenu items within a MenuStrip.
File
-Open

I know how to do it in a ContextMenuStri p as -
ContextMenuStri p1.Items.Item(N ame).Enabled = False
but MenuStrip1.Item s.Item("Open"). Enabled = False doesn't work.
Any help appreciated.

Each MenuStrip item is declared as it's own entity. By default it takes the
name of the Text and "ToolStripMenuI tem". In your case, your object may be
named "OpenToolStripM enuItem". You can simply set OpenToolStripMe nuItem.Enabled= False.

Hello Jim,
Thank-you very much for your assistance. As I thought, it was stupid
question, but I just couldn't see the forest for the trees! (You
wouldn't believe how long I spent on this, and all the Googling in the
world didn't seem to help!!!)
Thanks again.
ShaneO

Could someone explain how to merge the form menu with the mdi container
window. The menu strip items on the form window merge but I either end up
with a blank blue menu on the form or top list of items that don't do
anything.
MDI Container.IsMdiContainer = true
MenuStrip.AllowMerge = true
/// First menu items
this.miFile.MergeAction = System.Windows.Forms.MergeAction.Insert;

For the last 3 or 4 days I've been, on an off, searching the Internet and
theVS2005 Doc for an example of how to add a contextmenustrip to a
menustrip. I can move all the items from a contentmenustrip to a menustrip,
but what I need to do is have the items in both places.
I did see where it was said that a contexmenu can be used in multiple
places. But I wonder if that means that multiple controls can reference the
same contextmenustrip....

Ok, I have a menuStrip and a toolStrip. the menuStrip is laid out like this:

Pretty simple. The toolstrip has 1 item, a toolstripstatus. I decided I wanted to add a little icon next to the status text, so I opened up the image property in Design mode and imported 2 images. Both were PNG images and were 256x256 resolution. I decided that I wanted to use smaller versions since it was, after...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
