Your question is not very clear.

If you want to access the shortcut keys, just use alt + the menu and that should execute the menu option.

If you want to handle the click event, use a handler to catch the event and implement it yourself.
For e.g.

C#

private void menuItem1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
       //Do Stuff
}

When I click on Sales the Sales file should be opened. What command and namespace should be used
private void menuItem1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
//In webapplications we use Response.Redirect("Sales.cs");
what should be used for windows applications

}
Hope I am clear
Please help

If you are using a database, then write a query to retrieve values from the database.
If its only a report, then open the file and display it.

Member 9250821 9-Mar-14 4:50am

private void menuItem1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
opendialog(Sales.cs)
}
The above command is not working
I am not using a database but unable to give command to redirect it to sales.cs
Please help
