Side menu in window form in .net

How do I create side menu in .net windows application? Is there any possible way to implement this using MDI or should I use some kind of spli开发者_JAVA技巧tter control? Or if you may know to do it with devexpress control, it would be nice too.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean with a side menu but the following 2 codeproject articles discuss creating menus similar to the one in older versions of Outlook if that's the kind you mean?
