 Problem in accessing menustrip items in VB.Net 2005.
.NET Framework 2.0, VB.NET 2005
Hi everyone, I'm working with VB.Net 2005(.Net framework 2.0). I am having a problem in accessing the items in a menustrip of a form. Suppose there is an item in a menustrip named FILE. Under the FILE item there are 3 subitems- OPEN, SAVE and EXIT. Now, I wanna access and disable the 2nd subitem i.e. SAVE with its index value. In VB.Net 2002 it could be done by the following code: Me.Menu.MenuItems(0).MenuItems(1).Enabled=False The first 'MenuItems(0)' refers to the item- FILE. The latter one refers to the 2nd item of FILE (Array concept). But in VB.Net 2005 I can write the above code upto.... Me.MenuStrip1.MenuItems(0) After that I cannot access any subitem. Can anybody provide me the code snippet for that?

Each item in the submenu should have it's own name, and you should be able to reference it directly by it's same and disable it with .enabled = false.
