that's what i'm trying to avoid.
i'm trying to don't mess up the code when i'm having a
lot of source code and a lot of "if"s. I worked like
this before and I had alot of situations when I had to
mess up source code to gain some special
functionalities from that form. The good part of the
frame is that i can write a frame with only one part
of initial form. exemple: make a customer list on the
frame and the buttons with functions wich differ from
form to form will remain on the forms.
Does anyone know how cand I use child MDI and have
another child MDI opened as modal? so that I won't be
able to press anything until I close this window? or
the only solution is to test when i focus another
window and automatically close the current window?
