Opening a Tabbed Window
posted

Not sure if this the right place to ask, but I'll give a try..

 I have a child window (a Client Detail window), that is not assigned an MDIParent.  The user would like to be able to open a Contact Detail Window and have it appear in the TabbedMDI on the MDIParent.

 Can't assign the Client Detail's MDIParent as it would open the Client in the Parent TabbedMDI, they just want the Contact Detail to open in the TabbedMDI

Possible?

 Thnx.

    I'm not really sure I understand the relationship between the mdi parent, the Client Detail window and the Client window, but it sounds like this is an issue with your application, maybe in the way you are processing the MdiChildActivate of the parent.  Regardless of that issue, the tabbed mdi manager will only show a tabbed window if its MdiParent is set to the form. There is no way around this.
