How do you create a popup window containing a list of MDI child forms?

Hi all,

I have an MDI application with a function that displays a popup window
(through the showdialog method) which displays all the current MDI child
windows.

I know how to get a list of the current MDI children from either the MDI
parent or a child form, but how do I do it when the popup form trying to
access this list is neither, but the MDI container is the parent form of this
popup?

I have tried many different things in the load event of the popup, but keep
getting exceptions. Has anyone else done this successfully or can give me
some pointers?

regards,

Mac

Mac,

I assume that you are now popping up with show.

In my opinion is the best method to use for this showdialog.

I hope this helps,
