Maximize child form

I use C# in VS 2005. In my MDI app, if I click on the title bar of a child
form, the form will maximize and the title bar will disappear. I want the app
to do it automatically, when launching a child form, maximize it.
The question is how to do it. Please help and thank you very much.

when you open the form open it as being maximized.

or you can just set the WindowState to FormWindowState .Maximized

How do you prevent the child from displaying the title bar before it
maximizes? This causes a blinking effect that is not desirable.

I'm building a MDI application that has child forms. I'm trying to find a way to hide the inner boarder of the child frame area. Setting the FormBoarderStyle of the child form has no effect. Also, when the parent form's FormBoarderStyle is set to nothing, then the child form is maximized, I get the minimize and maximize buttons at the top of the parent from even though the boarder style is set to none for both forms. How do I prevent...

I set an MDI child form to Windowstate=maximized at design time. When I new up and show the child form in the MDI parent, the child's title is hidden since it's pushed to far up (below parent tool bar). On the MDI parent, the resize icon is displayed in the top right. That means the child is maximized right? What doesn't it fill the parent container area? When I click the resize icon, the child then jumps to the parent center and...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
