Menu is disapearing in 2005

[mmitchell]

Using vb.net 2005

I added a MainMenu item to a form which worked just fine until I also
added a contextmenutab. After adding the contextmenutab the mainMenu
captions disapeared from the form at runtime. The contextmenutab lays
over the Mainmenu hiding it until I click on the MainMenu1 icon at the
bottom of the screen.

I removed the contextmenutab and now the MainMenu captions don't appear
during runtime and also disappear when I click anywhere on the form.

Any idea on what is going on. Is this a bug?

I've had the same problem with the MainMenu. I wasn't using a contextmenu,
but the MainMenu started behaving as you described during runtime and design
time.

My only solution was to create a new form and copy everything to the new
form, then it seems to work fine again.

I haven't found any reference to a bug that corrupts the form, but it seems
there must be one.
