Reference to a control error. Toolstrip

[Manekurt]

Hello to everyone, I have this code, that gives me an error on the marked
line. It is to make a reference to a submenuitem, to enable it thorgh it
name.
Error line:

For Each oSubitem As ToolStripMenuItem In oSubmenuItems

error: Message="No se puede convertir un objeto de tipo = Can´t convert
the type of object
'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripSeparator' to type
'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem'."



If anyone knows how to solve this, it would be of great help

Thank you

Manek

The ToolStripItemCollection is a collection of 'ToolStripItem' not
'ToolStripMenuItems'. So maybe something like this (and I am not sure of
this part)...

For Each oSubitem As ToolStripItem In oSubmenuItems
if TypeOf oSubItem Is ToolStripMenuItem Then
...
The point being that a ToolStripSeperator is a ToolStripItem but not a
ToolStripMenuItem.
