I can't figure out how to find the Form for a MenuItem is on using a reference to the
MenuItem only?  I'm looking for something like the FindForm method for controls.  I
finally figured out how do do it for components (see below), but I can't figure out
how to do something similar for menu items.  Any ideas?

Thanks in Advance - JackRazz

Public Shared Function FindFormForComponent(ByVal component As
System.ComponentModel.Component) As Form
       Dim i As Integer
       Dim container As System.ComponentModel.IContainer = component.Site.Container
       Dim components As System.ComponentModel.ComponentCollection =
component.Site.Container.Components
       For i = 0 To components.Count - 1
           component = CType(components.Item(i), Component)
           Dim parentForm As Form
           If TypeOf component Is Form Then
               Return CType(component, Form)
           End If
       Next
End Function

AFAIS it is not possible. Why do you need it? Maybe you could raise an event
handled by the Form instead? BTW, a menuItem *is* a component.
Please post only to the appropriate groups next time.
