I have an MDI main form that shows a child.  WHen the child is shown it
maximizes to fit in the space available in the main form.  FOr some
reason when I set the window property of my child to maximize when the
app runs it shows the controlbox buttons (minimize,maximize).  I have
disabled all the properties that would allow this to happen yet it
still occurs.  If i set it to run as a normal window it does what it is
suppose to but that is not what I want, I want it to be maximized, is
there any explanation for this?

As I have already mentioned, all properties are set to false.  The
controlbox options maximize and minimize are still showing up though.
If i press the shrink button then it does and the buttons
disappear...but I dont want the user to be able to resize the form at
all!!
