mdi child without controls

I'm opening an mdi child form maximized. I've set the controlbox to false,
the maximize button to false, the minimize button to false. Nevertheless,
when the child form opens, it has a minimize, maximize and mid size (don't
know what to call it) button - however, neither the maximize or minimize
buttons work - but the mid zise does! How can I turn it off?

Thanks for any help.

Try setting the form border style to none of Fixed mode.

That's a known "problem". Which version of .NET do you use?

Thanks Mahesh, but the parent imposes these onto the child forms. The only
way around it is to remove the buttons from the parent and size the children
precisely.

Hi, I was under the impression that, when ASP rendered a page, it recursively traversed the hierarchy, executing all controls in each ControlCollection of every control in that hierarchy. I tried adding a Button control to a TextBox ControlCollection, and it didn't execute. When I add the control to the Placeholder ControlCollection (after the TextBox control is added), it executes without any problem:

I haven't been able to figure this out and would appreciate some help... I have two tables, both with autonumber primary keys, and linked in a conventional master-child relationship. I've created forms for both those tables, and inserted the child table form into the master table form as a subform. It works just as it is supposed to, in that I can create a new master record, and then add detail records.

Greetings. I have a serious problem. I have multiple sets of tables, several of which are chained more than two tables deep. That is, I have a parent, a child, and a great-grandchild table. Currently, I am allowing the parent to be edited by itself. In order to get to a child table, a user needs to select a specific parent table ID. I have set this up using panels, and putting a drop-down list in the first panel, with its contents...

I've noticed that controls that are contained in MDI child forms fail to raise MouseLeave events if the MDI child form's MdiParent property is set to Nothing (after it was set to an existing MDI container form) or if the MDI child form's Visible property is set to False (after the MDI child form was shown). This is an enormous problem for my app because I must show different MDI child forms based on the state of my application and many of the...

For some reason, when I click the X to close my MDI parent form, the action appears to be re-directed to one of the MDI child forms, and the parent remains open. I am then unable to close the application. What should happen, is that the main MDI form should close, taking the child forms with it. There is code to loop through the child forms, remove the controls on each of them, and then close the form, but this code should execute only...

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

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
