In my MDI application, I would like to place a control on the parent
that acts like the Windows menu item listing open child forms. I want
to keep the menu item, just place the control in a more user friendly
position. My thought was a listbox control, but that may not be the
best control to use for this. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Why not? Seems perfect to me for this. Or if you want to show more details,
you could use the listview control instead (in its column/details view)

I agree, the listbox control would be the best. All I want to do is
list the open child forms and allow the user to select them from the
list and set focus to the selection. Basically the same thing as the
menu item does, just in a better spot. Could I set up the datasource
for the listbox to the open form list?
