Judith, you asked a similar question in this thread.
What effect are you trying to achieve?
[Edit]
What do you mean by "attach one user control to each menu strip"?

Have you looked at using a ToolStrip instead.
This allows you to "host" any control derived from Control.
A detailed example can be found here.

This is what I came up with to use a PictureBox in a ToolStripMenu.

public partial class Form2 : Form
	{
		ToolStripPictureBox toolstripPictureBox;
		public Form2()
		{
			InitializeComponent(); //<- toolStip1 added by designer
			toolstripPictureBox = new ToolStripPictureBox();
			toolstripPictureBox.PictureBoxImage = this.Icon.ToBitmap();
			toolStrip1.Items.Add(toolstripPictureBox);
		}
	}

	class ToolStripPictureBox : ToolStripControlHost
	{
		public ToolStripPictureBox()
			: base(new PictureBox())
		{
		}

		public PictureBox PictureBoxControl
		{
			get { return this.Control as PictureBox; }
		}

		public Image PictureBoxImage
		{
			get { return PictureBoxControl.Image; }
			set { PictureBoxControl.Image = value; }
		}
	}
