We are having problems with SP1 of the framework. This has been
confirmed to be a SP1 issue and tested on several machines using XP
and Win2K. MDI activation is different.
1. Have multiple MDI windows open in an a C# app that has MDI forms.
2. Close the top window.
3. The form that was first opened gets activated instead of the form
that was most recently opened.

We have found other differences too but this one seems to be the real
killer because it interferes with the workflow of our users.

Any ideas or work arounds? Thanks.
 
FYI, I discovered why this happens. We put A Hide() call in the
OnClosing function. It's a rather complex form with a lot of controls
and it seemed to give a cleaner/quicker shutdown. SP1 did cause the
different behavior that much was confirmed. We will have to live with
the flashing on form closing but at least we found the problem. :-)
