I think that you should show "some" code to get help, there are millions of
ways you could have done this.

And please copy it first in a notebook and than back in the message
otherwise it is mostly unreadable.

Are you showing the form as MDI child?

to make eazy to understand

1. create mdi container form
|
| in the mdi container
|
2. add Panel (set dock to fill) this will make panel fill up the whole
mdi container
|
| in panel
|
3. add tabcontrol (set dock to fill) it will fillup the whole panel

from menu :
Private Sub ReplaceToolStri pMenuItem_Click (ByVal sender As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.EventArg s) Handles ReplaceToolStri pMenuItem.Click

Dim m_oReplace As New findreplace(loc _openDocList, TabControl1)

m_oReplace.MdiP arent = Me

m_oReplace.Show

(no error , but the form not showing out , I even try to set top most on the
child form but no use)

Cc,

What is this code
Dim m_oReplace As New findreplace(loc _openDocList, TabControl1)

It says for me something as: instance a new form what has in the constructor
a whatever and a reference to a Tabcontrol which belongs to the MdiParent.

As well it is not impossible that your panel covers your MDIClient when that
is created on the MDIparent form in the sample you showed.

However it looks strange what you are doing..

I have a form which calls up a second form for purposes of data entry. When closing the data entry form and returning to the main form, things don't work as expected.

However, I intitially tried to use the Repaint Object command to repaint the form. That did not work. Though I solved the...

In VB 5 I could have a form named frmTest and open it with frmTest.Show Now in VB.net I have to Dim frm as New frmTest frm.show The problem is I only want one instance of frmTest open, not a new one each time. Is there a way to prevent this, or test for the form being open already?

Hi, I have a form for uploading documents and inserting the data into a mysql db. I would like to validate the form. I have tried a couple of Javascript form validation functions, but it appears that the data goes straight to the processing page, rather than the javascript seeing if data is missing and popping up an alert. I thought it may be because much of the form is populated with data from the db (lists, etc.), but when I leave...

Hello guys, now that I'm that I'm working on my first major 'open' forms (with uncontrolled users I mean, not a secure backend-interface), I'd like to add a lot of possibilities to check wether certain fields match certain criteria, and inform the user in different ways when the data is wrong (offcourse, this will be checked on posting the data again, but that's something I've got a lot of experience with). Now, offcourse it's...

I have public methods in a form. The main form calls them, to update that form's display. This form is like a real-time view of data that is changing. But, the form may not exist (it is created / destroyed at user request). I can check form != null to prevent incorrect access. But, the form could disappear immediately after the check, before the method is run. Or someone could click 'close' when it's in the middle of an update. ...

I'm completely new to using background threading, though I have downloaded and run through several samples and understood how they worked. My question is: I have an app whose primary form will almost always lead to the user opening a certain child window that's fairly resource intensive to load. Is it possible to load this form in a backgroundworker and then use the Show method and hide method as necessary? Anyone know of
