No name for menu items

[Jack Russell]

Am I missing something here? Menuitems do not seem to have a name
property accessible by software yet they clearly have one at design time.

Thanks

If you are talking about menuitems on the mainmenubar click on it in
editor then right click and select [Edit Names] You then have access
to the menu's name values to change as you would the menu text.

Sorry I meant programatically

Jack,

No window forms menuitems don't have a name property.

I hope this helps,

You can change the name of the form's member variable referencing the menu
item in the property grid at design time. Menu items do not have a 'Name'
property.
