Count the number of child forms

[Flupke]

How can I count the number of the open child forms of a MDI form in VB.NET? The purpose is to set the enable status of a menu-item to false when there is no longer a child form open.

Many thanks,

Michel

You might have to use ActiveMdiChild.

How can I detect on which button of a toolbar the mouse is pointing at, so I can show that information in e.g. a statusbar? The mousemove recognizes the toolbar, but not tne separate buttons.

Many thanks,

Michel
