There doesn't seem to be any way to merge without duplicating menu items in the child menu.
eg:
Parent:
File
->New
->-
->Exit
Child:
File
->Save
Results in (at best!):
->New
->-
->Exit
->Save
Plus, if there's multiple child windows, the inactive windows display the child's menu. When they regain focus the menu disappears, when they lose focus it reappears.
Thanks,

Child:
File -- Match
->Save -- Insert, 1
...works correctly.
I did this and my menus merge but the Parent Menu items are still in the child form. Any ideas?
This works but I think this is a cheesy solution.
I think that your problem will be solved using MergeOrder of the menu items.
E.g. for your example you should to set merge orders like that:
Parent: MergeOrder
File
->New 5
->- 10
->Exit 15
Child: MergeOrder
File
->Save 6 (any from 6 to 9)
Results will be : resulting Order of Merge
->New 5
->Save 6
->- 10
->Exit 15
I hope the scheme is clear. These order numbers (5, 10 and 15) are for easy adding new menu items. The best step I think is about 10 positions.
Good luck!
