Help

I have an MDI VB.NET application. When I select forms from the mdi menu each
child form opens further down and to the right on the screen than the
previous one. It gets to the point where the forms look unprofessional and
untidy and half of the information is off of the screen. How can I influence
specifically where the child gets postioned when being opened from the menu?

I don't just want to maximise the forms when opening.
 
Hi,

For all the child forms, look for the property:

Layout -> StartPosition

And set it to Manual.

Otherwise, windows uses the "Windows Default Position", a cascade type as
you describes....


Good Luck.
