Assuming the Control has vertical space to handle wrapped text: have you tried setting the MenuStrip Item's auto-size to 'false.

This is Windows Forms ?

Yes Bill, I am working with Windows Forms, I tried to do as follows you supported, but It did not work; I had to use '\n' to separate the text of menu item and it worked, but I had to manual with code. I want to separate automatically! Hope you help me to do this. Thanks.
