Is it possible to have one form launch another form (via a menuitem user selection) and then show that child form such that it appears only within the first form (similar to microsoft word and its many child document windows.) Essentially, I'm wondering if .NET allows you to do C++ style concepts of MDI or SDI framewindows, and if so how? My Form1 class loads Form2 with: Form1 appNewForm = new Form1(); appNewForm.Show(); // or with -> appNewForm.ShowDialog(); But these appear as windows which are not ensloed in the main window. Has anyone got a solution for this???
