Greetings all

I have a form i want to use as a backdrop for three other forms. I want the
three other forms to be placed at a specific location on the backdrop form.
Im at a loss here....

Is doing it as a MDI container applicable here? If not, you can still
create the three instances of the forms, add each one to the first form's
Controls collection and set their position to match what you need.

HTH,

Maybe an MDI environment is what you are looking for. Set the main
form's 'IsMdiContainer' to 'True', and the childrens' 'MdiParent'
property to the container form before showing them.
