I work by Visual Basic 6

my problem is start when we are to close this window,
when we are to close all of this child form, when we open one child form again, this form don't display in "left=0","top=0" position,
This is display & open below last position of last window that open before close all window.
arrange function solve this problem for short time, but i can not use this function before open each window, because i want that users can be change the window's position by their desire.
I need to function that can change the position (Left & top) to the 0,0

when we are to close all of this child form, when we open one child form again, this form don't display in "left=0","top=0" position,

How do you close you child forms? Do you use Hide or Unload method?

Btw, if you add this to your child form load event form will appear in the top right corner:

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Me.Move 0, 0
End Sub

Based upon a single global variable that keeps track of how many child forms you have open...

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.Left = MyGlobalVariable * 300 'tweak these values...
Me.Top = MyGlobalVariable * 300
MyGlobalVariable = MyGlobalVariable + 1
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Unload()
MyGlobalVariable = MyGlobalVariable - 1
End Sub

Good Luck
