Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Using Forms and Tabstrips


May 26th, 1999, 11:13 AM
I am trying to get clicks in a treeview to load up forms to the right of the tree view. I have found know way to do this other than using frames. I am planning on using over 20 different forms and frames just aren't a clean implementation in my opinion. I would much rather use forms and load them into the window also allowing me to have the code in the form rather than all in the main form. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

MDIForm is the way to go. Design a base form which is MDI and all your other forms ( now in Frames) will have MDIChils property set to True, so that when they are shown they will appear in the base MDI form.
Design your "Navigator" tree-view also on a form, and show it along with the MDI always.
Implementation (of forms) will be seperated into well defined blocks.
