Hi All,
I am trying to figure out the following:

Main form is a MDI Parent.
I have several forms that are children that I want always to be Maximized
within the Parent.
However, I also have children that I want NOT to be Maximized by default.

This scenario has alluded me for awhile. Can't seem to do both at the same
time and I am not allowed to create a second MDI Parent that is also a Child
of the Main Parent.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,

John.

Then don't use an MDI environment.

Don't show them as children.

MDI stands for "Multiple /Document/ Interface". MDI environments are
used when providing a way to edit multiple /documents/. All documents
have equal opportunities inside the MDI environment. Consequently,
changing the windowstate of one MDI child changes the windowstate of all
children.
