MDI child windows MUST live inside the bounds of the Main Form! That is NOT the case with Delphi 7 IDE. The "document" (source editor) windows and all other windows are completely separated from the Main Form and lives outside the bounds of the main form - that is SDI. See my ASCII art images again. Other than this, I think I give up trying to explain this. :-) Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
