View 13 RepliesHow do I make a menu item on a menu strip link to another windows form (like a menu item that links to an about page already created in the project). I know that every coder knows how to do this, but i've read most of the instructions in the world for Visual Basic coding, but can't find ANYTHING I know coding fairly well, so I can modify it, but I can't create it my self.
View 4 RepliesI noticed that adding a MenuStrip (from the Toolbox) to my form design doesn't yield a menu bar like many native Windows applications. Instead I get a menu bar like Visual Studio's own. None of the style settings for MenuStrip appear to mimic the much more common native menu bar.Is there a way to add a menu bar to my Windows Forms application that looks the same as the one you see in Notepad, Task Manager and others? (Preferably with the designer, but I wouldn't mind adding it programmatically either.)

I have created a Windows Application using VB dot Net. It has many Forms. The user shall be able to open many forms at a time. I want to provide a "Window" menu functionality to the existing application. Whenever any form is opened, the menu should add the open-form and when it is closed, it must be removed from the Window menu. The functionality should be similar to any Word file's Window functionality.
Active window must be tick marked.
I am working on a project that is pretty much done, but I wanted to put the finishing touch on it.I have a shock wave flash object over most of my form, and I load shock wave files onto it so they are accessible from the main flash object. But one of the shock wave menus I have is pretty much just flat, and I was wondering how I can make it a little transparent like the windows 7 GUI so you can kind of see a blur of whats behind the GUI.
