Simply select a form to start from a list
When you add a new menu item to start a form, simply select it form a list.

Other related properties are present too, such as starting the form modal/modeless.
You can even set the maximum allowed open dialogs of the same form.
And its action when the maximum is exceeded, such as hiding/disabling the menu item or show a message.

Example of selecting a form to start:

Autosave last used positions / sizes
Forms can be opened at the last used position (SerializeFormLayout). Even the last used Form size and the last used DataGrid column sizes are automatically saved. This data is saved in an XML file, which can be user dependent (e.g. the XML file is automatically saved in: C:\Documents and Settings\ username\Application Data).

---

ToolStrip
Just fill in the related ToolStripButton of a menu item and it will perform exactly the same action as the menu item. And the image of the ToolStripButton is automatically set for you to the same one of the menu item itself.

---

Checked menu items
We take care of handling the checking/unchecking of checked menu items.
You do not have to write any code. Such menu items can be toggled separately or in a mutually exclusive group (like in the example below).
