What is Wrong (MDI)

[fdelpuerto]

Hi, can anybody help me

I have a project with

- MDI form
- Childform1 with treeview and listview controls
- Childfrorm2....3....4....5....6.....etc.

The Childform1 must be always on vbMaximized,
but when I show any other Child form, Childform1 is minimized.

Can anybody tell me how fix it

If the Childform1 is Maximized and taking up the whole screen then where are you showing childform2?

If you are trying to make Childform1 some kind of menu type of form you could put a picturebox on the MDI form and then use the SetParent API to set Childform1 to have the picturebox as a parent. That should let you control the other MDI children normally or just don't make Childform1 an MDI Child.
