    MDI, MODAL, and Child forms *UNRESOLVED*

    I am working on an MDI application and am running into a problem with the forms.

    now there is the one main MDI form.. and then there are child forms that are all the same (IE created via in instance of a premade form)
    VB Code:
    1. Dim frm as New frmMDIChild
    2. frm.show
    so the user can open multiple forms at once.

    so now my problem is this, on this child form there is a section where if you select yes to a yes/no option button, a pop up form comes up to be completed. Now this form needs to be modal to the MDI Child form and I am looking at the best way to accomplish this

    the only real problem is i can't use the MDI child form as the second parameter when using popupform.show vbModal, owner

    it wont let me do it.. and I need that so I can have the popup form show in the center of the MDI child form... any ideas? should I just get the location of the MDI Child form and move the popup form accordingly?
