VB.NET 2005 and ToolStripMenuItem

[Maileen]

Hi,

I've create an application which includes :
- a toolstrip
- a toolstripmenu
- several toolstripmenuitem(s)

so, now i have a menu like that :

-File
|
|-New
|-Open
|-Save
....

With normal menu control, each submenuitem has an index value that allows me to know exactly which one has be clicked.
But i do not see any index property in the ToolStripMenuItem control...

So, how can i detect which subitem has been clicked ?

thanks a lot,
Maileen

Hi,

Each menu item will have its own click event.

Each menu item has a name property, rather than an index number.
They can be referenced that way.

Each menu item is an object in its own right, with its own events, methods,
properties, etc.
