design question: how to organize your toolstrips

[Rudderius]

Hey,

I'm working on a winform app in VS 2005. I'm wondering if someone knows
some best practices on how to organize the toolstrips.

I have a menuToolStrip and some other toolstrips. As in many apps, the
functionality of the toolstrip en the menubar overlap. (e.g. cut & copy etc)

The commands I'm using for my application are more complex off course
than just a copy and a paste.

Does someone has an idea on how to organize such things without having
to write twice the same code. The fact is that I want to give the user
the choise to show or hide some of the toolstrips.

Thanks in advance,
Dries

Create methods that perform the work that the menu handlers are now doing.
Use the handlers to call the functions.
