    Hi,
    I'm using Visual Basic 6.0(SP3). I have created some menus in a MDI Form. I'm having another MDI Child form with some hidden menus. While running the project if i open the Child form the menus in MDIForm is going invisible. is there any way to avoid this problem? Thanks for any help.

    Well ....

    Not too sure, but just check out the 'NegotiateMenus' property of the forms. I think that's where the problem is.

    The MDI menus assume the childs menus if it has any. I guess if there are some hidden you will loose you MDI menus

    I tried NegotiateMenus Property, but same problem is there. It won't make any change.

    I know your problem...

    I wonder if there is a way to have a childs menu added to the MDI instead of replacing it.


    I don't know in the past I always copied the menu from the MDI (or recreated it) in the child then modified it

    I know its not the best way
