MDI menu items (how to merge successfully

I don't know what happened but a menu that used to merge well no longer does

I have an MDI form

The main MDI form has the main menu.

In it is for example, Schedule menu with item Tasks

Schedule name is mnuSchedule, set to MergeItems, 5
Tasks item name is mnuScheduleJobs, set to MergeItems, 0

If another child window opens it has a Schedule menu that should merge
Menu name is mnuSchedule, MergeItems, 0 text=Schedule
it has a task Schedule New Job, name=mnuScheduleNewJob, MergeItems, 0

When this window is active, instead of merging the item with the one in the
main MDI schedule menu, it shows 2 Schedule menus.

Please give me an explanation and solution.

Thanks,

Shane
