how?

Many thanks and kind regards,

Yes, you can create MDI appcation to host child forms.

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();

this.IsMdiContainer = true;
}


private void newToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender,
EventArgs e)
{
Form2 mdiChildForm = new Form2();
mdiChildForm.MdiParent = this;
mdiChildForm.Show();
}
}
