  #1  
Aug 1st, 2007
Hi

I have a software, which contain
several forms that are open at the same time.
And i have caple of problems with it:
1) How can i do that all the forms will minimize
when i minimize the main form ?
2) I have some forms that supose to be at the top of the screen
all the time (form.topmost) but the problem is
when i go to another program (while my software is open)
those forms are still at the top of the screen, i dont want them
to be at the top when my software lost focus, how can i do it ?
(i tryed to make all the forms.topmost=false, when my main forum
lost his focus, but its not working :/)


Thanks.

If you have a main form that makes subforms, you should be using an MDI application design. That fixes both of the problems right out of the box.
The truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it.
