MDIParent or ParentForm not working in MDIChild

I am creating child forms using this standard code:
Dim newDoc As New frmAnswer
newDoc.MdiParent = Me

newDoc.Show()

Inside the child form I need to know who the parent is, but MDIParent and
ParentForm are Nothing. Why is that? Even the IsMDIChild property is False.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Click to expand...

'Me.MdiParent' inside the MDI Child form isn't nothing after assigning
an MDI parent form. Are you sure you are checking the property's value
/after/ assigning the parent form?
 
Yes, you are right. I was checking for the value in the wrong place !! I
don't know what's happening with me ...

Thanks for your time.

Daniel
