First, I'd just like to thank everyone who responded to my 2 previous posts. You've been extremely helpful. Now the problem: I am writing an MDI application that I based on an example program delivered with BC++3.1 as part of their Resource Workshop demo (rwcdemo). The problem is that when a child window is maximized, it dissapears and there is no way to get it back. Experimenting a little, I decided to add scroll bars (WS_HSCROLL | WS_VSCROLL) to the style in MDICREATESTRUCT and when I maximize this window, the scroll bars appear where they should (butted up to the border of the frame window, but the system menu and restore bitmap don't appear on the menu bar. I have looked at several books and it seems like maximizing an MDI child and getting the required behaviour is the default (i.e. I shouldn't have to handle the message myself right?). The Borland example has the same behaviour as my application. Anyone have any ideas? -- _________________________________________________________________________ Andy Deitsch email : deitsch@crd.ge.com GE Corporate Research & Development phone : (518) 387-7207 Schenectday, NY 12301 dial comm: 833-7207
