VB.Net mdiparent and controls

Dear friends,
I have a MDIform in vb.net with some images and buttons on it. This works
fine unless I open a MDIChild. The child is being displayed between the
images and buttons and the parent mdiform that is

MDIParent
MDIChild
MDIParent Controls

I want the MDIChild to appear on top of everthing, that is
MDIParent
MDIParentContro ls
MDIChild

Any sort of reply is appreciated, even the stupid ones can be helpful

Thanks and Regards
Duncan

FormParent load opens FormChildA. FormChildA btn click opens FormChildB. (FormChildA and FormChildB are both children of FormParent) (FormChildA and FormChildB are different forms) Problem: FormChildA btn click can only open one instance for FormChildB. I need multiple instances of FormChildB. Any suggestions or ideas please.

Hi I've noticed a couple of postings on this topic. I'm either not uderstanding them or I'm missing something. My app uses an MDIParent form (frmCAD). A menu item on frmCAD shows a child form (frmHistoricalCall). It also another menu item on frmCAD to "enabled = false", to prevent other forms being opened when frmHistoricalCall is in use. That menu item has it's modifier property set at "public".

I am trying to add Meebo's "Pop-out" kinda feature to my application which when a button is pressed in a MdiChild form, it kicks that MdiChild form out of the MdiParent boundary and acts like a SDI form of itself. When a button is pressed again, it is kicked back into the parent form. Everything is working fine except one problem. When the MdiChild form is kicked back into the form, I have to click the title bar of each MdiChild form to...

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,...
