Hello,
I try to use an master form with an menustrip and a statusstrip with several
items. I set the prperty modifier to public and created an inherited form
from the master. I tried to add additional toolstripitems either to the menu
or to the statusstrip without success in the designer. Adding items by code
works. What could I do to use the designer features.

Thanks for your help

Thomas

I'm having a similiar problem

My master form has a status and tool strip bar.

In an inhertitied form, I added a toolstripbar to a panel, but all the items
I add to it are going to the statusstrip bar at thebottom of the form,e ven
though in initialzomponent they're goign to the correct containe.

Oh I had to set AutoMerge to false that fixed it.

My app is MDI.
