whidbey winforms: MDI: why does childForm menuStrip appear in parentForm menuStrip?

hiya,
I have an MDI app.
When I add a menuStrip to the childForms, all is well at design-time.
However, 2 unusual things happen at run-time.

The childForm menuStrip:
1) disappears from the childForm
2) appears at the rightHand side of the parentForm menuStrip

Is this a bug? Can I clarify anything?

many thanks,
yogi

The menustrip and toolstrip both have an "AllowMerge" Property...

thanks man.
I'd have thought that the default would have been "false".
Ah well, fixed now.

cheers,
