ShowDialog in MDI forms

Hai

i like to get the functionality of ShowDialog in MDI forms. Until i close the child form that opened , i should not able to select parent form

In normal forms i can approach this with ShowDialog property.But this is not working in MDI forms


Please suggest if there are any


Thanks and Regards

That is not the way an MDI interface is supposed to work and it doesn't really make sense. If you don't want the parent to be accessible then why use MDI at all?

i want to display a single instance of the child forms. Like if i am using normal forms then i am getting two instances for the 2 forms displayed in the task bar.

i should like to have a application in such a way one instance should be displayed on the task bar like MDI (Dont want to use ShowInTaskBar=false)
