Answer to your question is given in the microsoft site as shown below. Link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7aw8zc76(v=vs.110).aspx Solution / WorkAround: When an MDI child form has a MainMenu component (with, usually, a menu structure of menu items) and it is opened within an MDI parent form that has a MainMenu component (with, usually, a menu structure of menu items), the menu items will merge automatically if you have set the MergeType property (and optionally, the MergeOrder property). Set the MergeType property of both MainMenu components and all of the menu items of the child form to MergeItems . Additionally, set the MergeOrder property so that the menu items from both menus appear in the desired order. Moreover, keep in mind that when you close an MDI parent form, each of the MDI child forms raises a Closing event before the Closing event for the MDI parent is raised. Canceling an MDI child's Closing event will not prevent the MDI parent's Closing event from being raised; however, the CancelEventArgs argument for the MDI parent's Closing event will now be set to true . You can force the MDI parent and all MDI child forms to close by setting the CancelEventArgs argument to false .
