Use an MDI form to hold the menus and the child forms are the ones in the middle. There is a control (not included with VS) that does those Outlook style menuson the left.

Do you know what controls?

The top is just a toolbar and the left is the outlook style one. I have one that was from a magazine but there are lots out there. Try searching for outlook bar or navigation bar or something like that.

The one on the left can be done exactly with Treeview showing large icons.

I have a question how can i set the size of a control equal to the size of a form?

In vb 6 their was the function scaleheight if i'm correct?

Set the Dock property to Fill.

Thanks,

What i don't get when using a treeview for the left menu is the title label in 3d for the MENU. Like on the screenshot.0

You can use the outlook control here (with source code + help) . Fortunately , it's free of charge .:D
