VIKKI,

   MDI child forms are the same as regular forms.  In order to make a
regular form an MDI child, all you have to do is set the MdiParent property
on the child form to the parent form.  When you show it, it will show the
form as a child of the parent form.

Beside that, you need to set the parent form's Ismdicontainer property to
true.

True, I assumed the original poster already had done that, considering
she was only asking about child forms.
