MDI...

New Project > Menu Item Project > Add Form > MDI > Change Form1's Property MDI Child = True
Menu Item Project > Properties > Start up Object > MDIForm1 > OK
Double click MDIForm1 to get to its Form Load() Event
Add

Visual Basic 4 / 5 / 6 Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
Load Form1
Form1.WindowState = vbMaximized
Form1.Visable = True
Load Form1
Form1.WindowState = vbMaximized
Form1.Visable = True

Run and minimized child form

Good Luck

you simply need to use MDI form and other forms that you want to minimize as child form of the MDI.
