MDI Scrollbars
I am creating an application using MDI and the child forms are DockFill true.
If the controls on the form are going outside the bounds of the MDI form (if on a smaller monitor), the scroll bars are not displaying.
Is this normal? I would like to know how I can go about making sure the scroll bars are visible if the controls are going outside the viewable area.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

What are you blind? Nah I'm sorry that was just to easy. Try setting the form's AutoScroll property to True.

I already tried that and the scroll bars do not appear for me.
Regarding your comment, I am partially sighted. I do not take offense to what you said, but others might.
With child forms that are not docked fill, the scroll bars appear, just not when they are filling the entire client area.

It's a form. Treat it like one. If you want to treat it like a user control then use a user control. If you want an MDI child form to occupy the entire parent client area then you maximise it.
