title: Menu Strip Control "Window"
body: <p>I am working on a project and am just stymied by this. It should be really straight forward. I have included the code so you can see the other Menu Strip Items.   </p>
  
  <p>The user has the ability to open as many "Child" forms into the mdiParent form. I would like the "Window" function on the menu strip to populate with the Bank Name found on the Child form so if a user had 10 bank forms open, they could find a specific form by clicking Window and seeing the bank name (the name of the text field which I would like to pull is Bank.lblbank.text) This functionality was found in the 2007 and older versions of many of the Microsoft Suite products.</p>
  
  <p>If I hadn't seen my professor do this in class, I would think it was a bit of proprietary Microsoft Office coding that us mere mortals cannot access.  Unfortunately, he whipped it out and I didn't get it captured.</p>
  
  <p>Obviously, I am not asking the right questions on the search engines because I cannot find a clear answer. Does anyone have any advice? This functionality isn't necessary but a little something I want to add. I've worked on this way too long and just want a little bit of success.</p>
  
  <p>Let me know if a zip copy of the project or screen prints would be helpful.  I'm happy to send them your way.  </p>
  
  <p>Appreciate everyone looking at this post and their feedback. Thank you for your time!</p>
  
  <p>Lauren </p>
