Prevent Menu Merge in MDI

How do I keep my MDI children from merging their menus with the parent? I
want both the parent and child to have their own menus bars.

Thanks!!

Brian,

You can use the mergetype for that

This are the enums from that from this page you can using the links as well
see how to use them.

Hi Brian

I think with the current implementation, an MDI child window menu will never
show in the child, it will always be merged into the MDI Container. Using the
2005 beta, this doesn't seem to be the case - you can have MDI child windows
with menus.
