Has anybody had trouble invoking a Child from (form2) another Child (form1)
of a MDI form?.. I am seeing strange behaviour...,(including this one.. see
my earlier thread "MDI form Strange Behaviour.."). Is there anything i
should watch for.. when doing this?... This what happens

1. The child (form2) invoked from the child (form1) does not paint fully...,
there is disconitunity in the window.
2. Happens only for the first time such a second child(form2) is
invoked...from the first child(form1)
3. If comment the .Show() method of the second child (form2), it does not
show, but the MDI's main menu disappears.
4. If run the project from VS.NET debugg mode(F5), and when the line
..MDIParent = Me.MdiParent executes; I get a object reference not set, i.e
saying the child form (form1) does not have MDI parent set. When step
through using a break point to see if there is really no parent, it works,
but again I get the problems outlined in 1,2,3 depending on what I do...

Somebody please help!!!..

called when the child window was visible, I put a IF around it.. and that
