See more:

menu structure is as follows:

1. Root
1.1 File
1.1.1 Save
1.1.2 Export
1.1.3 Exit
1.2 Tools
1.2.1 Support
1.2.1.1 Bank
1.2.1.2 Currency
1.2.1.3 ------
1.2.1.4 Ref Table
1.2.1.5 Payment Method

This is how am accessing menu items but not able to access sub items of the same..

BindingList Titles = new BindingList(); 
Titles = _FrmTitleMan.GetFormMenu(Program.UserTypeID); 
foreach (ToolStripMenuItem mainmenu in menuStrip.Items) 
   { 
   foreach (ToolStripItem item in mainmenu.DropDownItems) 
      { 
      foreach (FrmTitlesInfo frmtitle in Titles) 
         { 
         if (item.Name == frmtitle.Frmmenu) 
            item.Visible = false; 
         } 
      }

The problem is not clear. If you created such menu, it all yours, everything is accessible by definition. :-) What's the problem?

What more clarification you want sir,
This is how am accessing menu items but not able to access sub items of the same..

BindingList<frmtitlesinfo> Titles = new BindingList<frmtitlesinfo>();
Titles = _FrmTitleMan.GetFormMenu(Program.UserTypeID);

foreach (ToolStripMenuItem mainmenu in menuStrip.Items)
{
foreach (ToolStripItem item in mainmenu.DropDownItems)
{
foreach (FrmTitlesInfo frmtitle in Titles)
{
if (item.Name == frmtitle.Frmmenu)
item.Visible = false;
}
}

Now is it clear?
Or else tell me what more should i explain to you

Hey just chill
why you din't posted your code in your question itself. The code always makes question clear. That's what our experts expect.

Good idea (OP should use "Improve question" where the code should also be formatted), but why saying "just chill". OP is doing fine, just needs to explain what's the problem and then possibly get some help.

You did not get it. I know how to do it, I don't know what is the problem...
