MDI Child Window Toolstrip does not go away

[Fallen]

Hi,

I have an MDI child window with a toolstrip contained in a
ToolStripContainer. The MDI parent also has a Toolstrip contained in
another ToolStripContainer. If I drag my ToolStrip onto the parents
ToolStripContainer and then close the child window, the toolstrip does
not go away. This is not a merge issue. I am not using merge.

What is the usual way to handle child window toolstrips in an MDI?

regards,
T

In the child form's Dispose method add:



protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)
{
this.toolStrip1.Hide();
this.toolStrip1.Dispose();
