Re: 2 forms in MDI Window

Vasily,

You are using the correct built-in to open the second form.

Are you using open_form('formb', activate,session) command ? That is what I use.

If you want to see both the forms partially at the same time on the screen then go to menu option
window, then Cascade Or tile and then change the sizes of the forms to see both the forms.

There are 2 ways to see the opened forms 1 at a time that are hiding behind each other because they have been maximized and they are in their "Normal" state..

You can minimize each form in which case it will create small icons at the bottom of the MDI window.
Now you can choose whichever form you want to work with at a time.

Second method is microsoft way. Go to window option, you will see window names and numbers
which are hiding behind each other. Click on the window that you want to work with.

I have opened up to 20 windows on my NT which has 64MB of memory without any problem.

Later !!!
