Hi there.

I have the following setup in my Menustrip:

Inventory->New Item.

I want to be able to doubleclick and launch a form where I can collect information from the user to populate a new item.

I know how to setup de basic Menustrip and to setup the sub-menus. What I don't know where to design the form to collect the data and how to launch it upon the double clicking.

My environment is Windows 10, Visual Studio 2017 and C#

I appreciate your help.

What was your exact issue? You just have to design a form and take input from the user.

YiuYou can directly show a form or use MDI form (as required)
