Removing the comtrol box from child forms under a MDI form
It seems that even when the properties ControlBox, MinimizeBox and MaximizeBox are all set to FALSE, these boxes are still visible on the menu (for the child form). Close and Minimize don't work, but RestoreDown does work. Is it possible to eliminate these?
