Ah, now I get you.
What you need is a way to know when the child is closing. You can use the Child's OnClosing event. Call the parent and if needed have the parent call BringToFront() on the panel
For instance, in your child's closing event call
((Form1)MdiParent).ReActivatePanel();
and in your MdiParent ...
public void ReActivate()
{
// if MdiChildren.Length == 1, it will be 0 shortly since the
// child calling the method is about to close
if(this.MdiChildren == null || this.MdiChildren.Length < 2)
panel1.BringToFront();
}

I put a panel in MDI parent..when I want to show a child I have to call this
fragment code to show the child
this.Panel.SendToBack();
ChildForm ch=new ChildFrom();
ch.MdiParent=this;
ch.Show();
if I don't call this.Panel.SendToBack() ,the child is showed under Panel;
when I close the child ,the panel isn't showed anymore.

news:op.sq6ddlcgklbvpo@stone... Not sure if I understand your scenario. You have a panel on an MdiParent,
but not in the client area (docked?)
In any case, you probably have something in your code doing something
unintended. If you can show us a small but complete code sample
demonstrating your problem maybe we can help you.
