Hi,

I recently started rewriting the application i wrote in Delphi packages 
because the main application was growing to big. With the help of the 
internet i now am able to load the packages into my application succefull. 
My mainform is the MDIParent and all the modules that can be loaded are 
MDIChilderen.

On my mainform i have a outlookbar that basicly controls all the views in 
the MDIChilderen. For example it controls what page in the Pagecontrol to 
set. But also it creates custom grid views. I simply dont know i have can 
let the MDIParent communicate with the MDIChild.

In the old application it was simple by adding the form to the uses list of 
the main application. That way i could control the components on the 
childform but with packages this works a whole lot different. Can anybody 
please help me explaining how i can control components on the MDIChild from 
the MDIParent.

Thanks

Marco.
