Gremmy,

Many thanks for your reply and taking the time to put together the code for me.

That does work and I have toyed with that option, only problem though is that the number of items on the menu will change throughout the application so I need something a bit more generic which will work across the board.

I've been playing around with
Code:
ContextMenuStrip.SourceControl.Text = ContextMenuStrip.Text
Now this works to a degree. Firstly it will allow me to enter the text straight into the textbox which fired the contextmenu but the problem I have is that it doesn't put the menu item text in it.
