MDI child question

After receiving help from you guys I have converted a small program to use a
MDIform. My problem now is when I unload a child form to update it and then
re-display it, it seems to rachet down and to the right in relation to the
MDIform. I would like to unload or otherwise refresh the child form when a
item on the menu bar of the MDIform is clicked.
Thanks again for your help.

Save the Top and Left properties for the child form (in a "global"
variable) prior to unloading it and then use the child form's Move
method inside of the form's Load event to place it back where it came
from.
