Multiple mdi Children

I have a main window (form) wich is an mdi container.
i can open one form which mdi parent is this main window like this:

NewDistribution distr = new NewDistribution();
distr.MdiParent = this;
distr.Show();

in this New Distribution i have a new button wich opens another form... how do i set the second form to be opened in the main window's mdi container?
cause it is opening like a separate form...

Hi

You need to do this in the event handler of the button which will open the second form.
You simply create a new instance of the form you wish to show and set its MdiParent parent property equal to your main form and call the show() method of the new form. See below for an example:

Hope this helps

The thumbnail is tiny and of no real value. Can you post a full size image?

Do I understand your question correctly?
You have a parent form that opens a child form.
You have a button on the child.
You want the child's button to cause another form to open, as another child of the main - not as a child of the child.

Does that sound right?
