MDI Child disappears

[Guest]

I'm pretty sure this is a simple syntax issue, but it is driving me nuts.

When my parent does a .show on the child the child hides behind the parent. I can see the buttons on the child, but they are behind the buttons and boxes of the parent.

What am I missing? (Besides brains)

Did you set the property IsMdiContainer for the parent and in the code where
you load the child it should look something like this.

Dim myChild as New ChildFrm
myChild.MdiParent = Me
myChild.Show
