ToolStripMenuItem mnuItem = new ToolStripMenuItem("General Consultation");
mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Fiche History",null,ChildClick);
mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Stock Summary by LG Product and Selection Criter");
mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Product Code Display");
mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Copy Production BOM Versions from SAP");
MainMnu.Items.Add(mnuItem);
this.MainMenuStrip=MainMnu ; //LOOK code

Here is the Answer to Solve this,

// The Form.MainMenuStrip property determines the merge target.

this.MainMenuStrip = MnuStrip;

Where MnuStrip is the Object of MenuStrip Class.

Hi Prabhu,

I have attached the code here.

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            this.IsMdiContainer = true;
            MenuStrip MainMnu;

            ToolStripPanel tspTop = new ToolStripPanel();

            tspTop.Dock = DockStyle.Top;

            ToolStrip tsTop = new ToolStrip();
            tsTop.Items.Add("Fiche History");
            tsTop.Items.Add("Product Code Display");
            tsTop.Items.Add("Copy Production BOM Versions from SAP");
            tsTop.Items.Add("Mass Fiche Deletions");
            tspTop.Join(tsTop);

            this.Controls.Add(tspTop);

            MainMnu = new MenuStrip();
            this.Controls.Add(MainMnu);

            ToolStripMenuItem mnuItem = new ToolStripMenuItem("General Consultation");
            mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Fiche History",null,ChildClick);
            mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Stock Summary by LG Product and Selection Criter");
            mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Product Code Display");
            mnuItem.DropDown.Items.Add("Copy Production BOM Versions from SAP");

            MainMnu.Items.Add(mnuItem);
        }

        public void ChildClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Form2 frmshow = new Form2();
            frmshow.MdiParent = this;
            frmshow.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;
            frmshow.Show();
        }
