Forcing a Mdi Child Window Size

[FireFett]

Hello everyone.

I have a mdi app where I display a mdi child that I want to have default set to a specified size in normal view but when it gets shown its size gets reduced. Is there an api that I can use to enforce the windows default size when being shown in the mdiparent?

Hi

If I understand your problem correctly, Try this:

'Make sure child Form.WindowState = Normal
'In Childs FormLoad Enter:
Me.Height = XXXX
Me.Width = XXXX
'Where XXXX = your required size.

I have discovered the issue has to do with the ACTIVEX control I am using that allows me to create forms in an ActiveX DLL and open them in the main project as a mdi child. I have decided to redesign the forms a bit so it won't be an issue now.
