Maybe the flickering problem that prevails on my side is an unsolved mystery, but after some helpful advice maybe I don't even need an MDI form at all. I can just set the Cards1.frm as a parent form (not an MDI parent) and link the Q#.frms as its child forms.

I did post a thread over a week ago (it was titled "Parent vs. Child"), and user LaVolpe did suggest what to do, but it didn't seem clear enough. I used the code, but it didn't seem to get me anywhere. What do you suggest with regards to linking the Q# forms as the children and the Cards1 form as a parent to those children forms?


Thanks, I realized that after ThEiMp offered a suggestion, and the MDI form truly is unnecessary. I probably did that out of overanalyzing on my part. I did a test run without the MDI form and MDI children, and the flickering doesn't prevail.
I ran the project just as you provided it to me and that was a MDI application. If you plan to keep the MDI forms then I still need an answer to my question.

Why do you need to use SetParent? If that works for you then don't change anything but if you just want to place forms in the same position each time then that shouldn't be a problem.
