I have been able to get MenuStrip to merge successfully but not the
ToolStrip.
Can anyone please show me step by step instructions how to do this. Thanks
 
As much documentation as I have read and the many experiments I have
tried, I am still unable to make it work.

I have attempted to reverse the order of the items - have synchronized
the MergeIndex properties on both toolstrips (forwards and backwards
several times).

One of my goals is to disable certain items while handling the enabled
button events in the MDI child. I can get the first button merged as
when I click it code in the MDI child form runs. However code from the
MDI PARENT also runs! The buttons are set to replace the buttons in
the MDI Parent. The other six buttons still run code from the parent
and nothing from the MDI child.

There must be an answer out there.
