Can't .NET 2.0 application have a native Windows menu bar like the one
on the top of the Notepad?

I'm certain it could be arranged, but don't. Use the the MenuStrip and
ToolStrip classes instead. Both you and your customers will be happier.

On Windows XP, the MenuScrip looks fine (just like Office 2003) but on
Windows Vista, I don't know, the native menu looks nicer to me. It
shows a soft gradation highlight, but MenuStrip shows sold blue
highlight.

I found a solution myself. By default the MainMenu control is not
listed on the toolbox. But I could right click on it and add the
MainMenu control (System.Windows.Forms).
