How to create XPMenu

[Himanshu]

Hi everyone,

I am facing this relatively small functional issue.

What I want to do is create an XpMenu on a windows form.

I am able to create parentbarItem and barItem using the customize option.

However, i am unable to figure out how to associate the various barItems to the main bar item on the Menubar so that items gets displayed.

Using the MenuSDI sample i can reverse-engineer and make things work.

However, since all the changes are being done manually in the InitializeComponenet, so all changes gets lost everytime i make even a small change on the designview.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,
Himanshu Kumar
