How do I center a child mdi form?

I tried to set StartUpPosition to CenterOwner or CenterScreen but it gives an Invalid Property Value error?

thanks!

Do it in the Child form load event

CForm1.Left = (MDIForm1.ScaleWidth / 2) - (CForm1.Width / 2)
CForm1.Top = (MDIForm1.ScaleHeight / 2) - (CForm1.Height / 2)
