hi!
I am developing a window based application. I want to show my menu to be separated by a vertical separator. Just like this:
File | Edit
Anyone?Is it possible?

ToolStripMenuItem can contain pipe-character (see the pic).
If you want that the MenuStrip itself looks like "File | Edit", you have to build your own menu system. That's not a standard Windows application style, more like something you see in the web-pages (like in this page too). Why would you want your Windows application to look like a web-page?

You can add pipe characters as top-level menu items and name them for example mnuPipe1, mnuPipe2 etc. (see the attachment).
The only problem is, when you hover mouse over the "pipemenuitem" it gets high-lighted like any other menu item.
