MDI Childs in VS2005 Pro?

Hello,
I created a Windows Application Project and tried to create a MDI-based
application. So I created a new MDI-parent with the creation wizzard. Then I
created a default form and tried to make it a MDI-child of the parent I just
created, but I didn't find an entry in the properties dialog which would the
form make a MDI-child.

Can someone explain to me how to add MDI-childs?

greetings

Florian,

This is something you have to do in code in response to an action. You
have to create an instance of your child, and then set the MdiParent
property to the form instance which is the parent. Then, when you call Show
on the child form, it will show as an MDI child.

Hope this helps.

Hi, I have a "parent" C program that forks off a "child" C program. Both the parent and the child print information to both stdout and stderr. I would like to redirect the parent and childs output to both stdout and an output logfile (in effect, a "tee" like behavior). I've tried several things with pipes and freopens, but I always seem

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
