    <p>I am trying to do something new in my learning of C#. I recently posted a similar question to setting up and populating a context menu directly. Now that I have that done, I find myself stuck getting the execution I need. </p> <p>I am creating a quick access list that is user defined. It is simply a name and IP Address. </p> <p>I am populating the list from an xml docmuent and adding to the context menu by:</p> <pre><code>ToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.Add(string name, image, eventargs onClick) </code></pre> <p>Where I am stuck is trying to figure out how to tell the click event what IP to use. I know in a method argument I could pass the IP address by adding another argument to the function such as:</p> <pre><code>doSomething("Hello World"); void doSomething(cmd) { messageBox.Show(cmd); } </code></pre> <p>How do get my variable menu choice to indicate the right IP address to the name? I assume if I can get the right IP used then I can use the same method to utilize the password as well. so my code looks like:</p> <pre><code> private void addToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { ... foreach(xml node in xml doc) { Room r = new Room(); r.Name =xNode.SelectSingleNode("Name").InnerText; r.IP = xNode.SelectSingleNode("IP").InnerText; r.passwrd=xNode.SelectSingleNode("Pass").InnerText; locations.add(r); presetsToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.Add(r.Name, null, disp); } } void disp(object sender, EventArgs e) { MessageBox.Show(r.Name's IP address); MessageBox.Show(r.Name's password); } </code></pre> <p>I am not against using another means of doing this. This was just what I could find that appeared to be the most simple. I just want to make sure it remains simple and the context menu/list is populated from an xml document. </p>

    1. COI apologize to all reading this. I didn't realize that I didn't include the foreach statement and the fact that this menu is being populated from an xml document. I apologize for this error as I think it makes quite a difference on how this situation is approached.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
