Problems with Send to Back & Bring to Front

Hai all,

Can somebody give me some solution to handle this scenario?

I've a MDI Parent form. It holds a GroupBox along with some labels. I have
one more form which is a child form this parent. When I open the child form
it gets hides behind parent form's GroupBox. I tried Groupbox.sendtoback()
on parent form and Me.BringtoFront() on childform__Activated() area, but NO
JOY...

Thanks in advance.

That's by design. Set the Dock property of the GroupBox.

Hai,

I tried the Dock property of the group Box... It works something like a
frame of ASP. What i need is this groupbox should go back and my child forms
should overlap on this group box.

Thanks,
Ajai

(AFAIK) This is not possible (by design).
