How to set childform to overlap every new childform.

Hi every vbforum members,

Can someone teach me how to set up a childform layout to overlap each page. The mdilayout contains 4 type of members. Cascade , tilehorizontal, tilevertical and arrangeicons. I met a problem against it. When i open a childform it will close the running childform. the code as below.

Code:

---

Public Sub ChildFormLoading(ByVal ChildForm As Form, ByVal FormName As String)
        For Each f As Form In Me.MdiChildren

            If Not f.Name = FormName Then
                f.close()

            End If
        Next
        For Each f As Form In Me.MdiChildren

            If f.Name = FormName Then
                Exit Sub

            End If
        Next
        ChildForm.MdiParent = Me
        ChildForm.Show()
    End Sub

---

After I open a childform it will always move like cascade. I want it remain at same position.

Can someone professional here give me a help, sorry because i really new at VS...:)

You've got the form's StartPosition property set to the WindowsDefaultLocation, which will show each for a little below and to the right of the previous. If you want the form displayed in a specific position then you need to set that property to Manual and set the Location property.
