stupid question about Visual studio .net

[Alain R.]

Hi,

I really like th Visual studio.net environment and windows type.
It looks like a simple SDI application, but i guess that behind this SDI
application look, MS has in fact developed a real MDI application and
just hide that windows bar.

Could you tell me more about this method ?

thanks a lot,

Alain

Visual Studio is an MDI app with a control they wrote (or somehow aquired?)
called EZTab (according to WindowSpy) that that hides the "mdi-ness" of the
application and presents the child windows as nice tabs.

I love the interface. I wish Microsoft would provide developers with the
feature (considering Classic MDI has been deprecated for 10 years).... so I
took it upon myself to code my own solution from the ground up. It works
quite well (and easily). http://www.cflashsoft.com/progs/mdiwinman/index.htm
It's free... source code included.
