Abstract
Visual Basic allows you to create applications with many forms, however some applications require a special type of form that contains other forms. Visual Basic allows you to create such a single container form called a parent window. This is called a Multiple Document Interface or MDI.
In this chapter you will learn:
-
What MDI forms are.
-
How to create an MDI form and child forms.
-
How to arrange forms.
