Q on Toolstrip container, making toolstrips stay where you put them!

Hi there

I have a toolstrip container on a form, with menus and 3-4 toolstrips (one for file, record operations, and one specific to the form that is open)

My problem is that I can arrange them neatly, and on the same line, FFFFRRRR, where "FFFFF" = file toolstip and "RRRR" = Records nav. I run it, and the item is rendered properly.

Once I close the solution and re-run it, the Second toolbar flops to the next line and sits out about a 1/2 inch from the left. Is this normal Do I have to provide some means for it to stay where I put it, or programattically force it to stay where it belongs

I wonder if there are settings I am missing, these toolbars and strips are vexing.

Thanks!

    I too have the same problem. It is not just in Design time. My Toolstrip controls are getting re-arranged in some order in run-time too. Has someone found a fix for this. Is it really a bug of VS 2005

    I am having the same problem. Did you ever figure out a solution.

    I also have one more problem. While I run the application in my machine, the controls are displayed fine. However, After I publish & when I open the application at client machine, the controls are arranged in a some way. It is not in the order i arranged it as.
