You can use 'frame control'

but anyhow, we can do that also by changing the
form barder style = None and manage Zorder

each every time you have to open that two forms.
so better option is frame control or you can use Tab Control.

I have a Microsoft UI Process Application Block that is controlling child forms in an MDI parent container. The views node in the app.config file has been set to stayOpen=false. Because there are a series of data entry forms using ONLY the numeric key pad, certain keys on this pad have been configured to behave as "function keys". In order for this to happen, I have implemented the IMessageFilter interface to intercept messages in the...

I'm trying to enable a menuitem in the parent form from a mdichild. Rather than making the menuitems public, I'd go for a public method in the parent form to do the change, but when I call the method from the mdichild, I get this error: C:\MyProjects\Visual Studio Projects\Tournament\Forms\frmLogin.cs(69): The name 'test' does not exist in the class or namespace 'Tournament.frmLogin' frmLogin is the mdichild.

I am using VB.NET 2003. I have read the threads concerning the problem where the FormStartPosition of CenterParent is ignored if the form is displayed with the Show method as opposed to the ShowDialog method. I am having a similar problem and I found a thread that had the following code in the child form's Load event: Me.Location = New Point(( _ Me.MdiParent.ClientSize.Width - Me.Width) * 0.5,

Hi guys I am puzzed (???) with a probably stupid problem (VB2003). I must be doing something dumb ... I want to open a owned form (must *not* be mdi child) over an Mdi Container, when the Mdi container starts. I have a small demo program made of: Form1, Form2 (empty) and a "StartProgram" class which contain the following code. The startup object is set to be: Sub Main

Hi all. I have a MDI child form that is a systems maintenance form. I have 7 buttons that will be used to call 7 lookup table maintance forms. My code to call the lookup table child forms from the child form is the problem. How do I code it? The MainFrame.vb is the MDI container. I tried setting that as the MdiParent but no joy... Obviously I can't use .Me as .Me is a child form also.. So how do I do this? Thanks in advance..

I have a "global" MDI which will contain everything in the application. Since the application itslef will include three different "environments" with their own child Forms, I was wondering if I could load any of these MDI containers (or environments) so that their parent is the global MDI form. Basically it's like having three different applications opening inside my main MDI form. Thanks.

This could be a difficult one, so please bear with me. I've an assembly containing Delphi 2006.NET forms. A C# app, via reflection opens these forms . This works fine - I've a C# app, opening Delphi 2006.NET forms. Some of these forms are MDI Child forms. Exceptions are thrown - "Cannot create form - No MDI Forms are currently active" when the C# app tries to open one of these.

Hi all I have a MDI Container Form, with one label control on the Background of this container form. When I now open a child form, this form is behind the label ... and this looks ugly ... :-)) When I set the label with "SendToBack", it completely disapears. I also tried to set the child form like "BringToFront" but this also does not help.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
