MDI Form Position

Hello

Two questions about positioning:

When I run my MDI application developed by VS.NET 2003, the MDI window is
opened in a new place and after some run again and again, it opens in a
position that some borders of MDI form goes out of the desktop.

The WindowState of MDI form is in Normal state.

Q1: How can I open my form in a position that the form is not gone out of
desktop

Q2: How can I position in the same position as previously opened in the last
run.

Thanks in advance.

The startup location is a property on the form called StartupLocation . This
can be used to startit center screen or something. To make it start where is
was last time you would need to handle the changing of the location and save
the new location to the registry or something. Then load it in the form
constructor and set the property.

I want to use a table for tabular data not any formatting layout, primarily emphasis needs to be on using css to place form elements. My method thus far has been to use a table, for several reasons i don't want to resort to this, i'd rather place the elements with css and get a standards compliant site. I am uncertain as to how to accomplish this....

Hi all Is there a way in which I can get the Form's position on the screen in pixels? I am having to position another form in relation to an MDI Child form, so I cannot use the Location property, because the MDI Child is usually 0,0 (Top left in the parent container) so if I position my other form in that location it goes to the top left of the entire screen. I have tried using the overloaded ShowDialog method to make the MDI Child form...

Hi, I build a web form with a 4-cell table on the top (flawlayout), followed by some labels and textboxes (gridlayout). The web form is displayed well in dell m60 laptop with all resolution options and DPI options. However when I tried to run it in a dell P3 desktop, labels and textboxes overlapped each other and they were in table area too. Any suggestions? Do I have to put all controls in table cells?

Hi all Can anyone advise how to get the position of an open form and how to set the position of an opening form within the access window.

Both forms are an identical size because of the length of the captions of the controls on the forms.

I placed a button on a form menustrip for the purpose of causing the horizontal scrollbar of my form to appear so that I can access controls outside of the form's current view (the controls are further to the right of the form than the form's default width - which may take up the entire screen for some users). The form contains panels which will contain either textboxes or datagridviews. The button is located on the menustrip towards...

HI, Just a warning, I'm a javascript neophyte. I'm writing a function to validate the contents of a form on a web page I'm developing. Since I'm a neophyte, this function is quite simple at this time (in fact, I don't even know if it totally works, I'm still debugging). However, the first problem is that when an error is encountered, I get my alert box, I press ok and then the form is submitted and the new data is entered into the...
