	Has anyone developed a MDI app that is multiidemsional?

	Here's an example:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
File	College		Majors
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
	Open		Open
	New		New
	...		...
	------		------
	xBussines	 Accounting
	 Engineering	 Finance
	 Education	xMIS
	---------	-----------		or
	 Business	 Electrical
	xEngineering	xBio Med
	 Education	 Mechanical
	-------------	 Chemical
			-----------		etc.

	Since only MAJORs are document windows, I thought I could manually
check/uncheck the COLLEGEs myself and keep seperate childlist's then assign tem
to mainwindow^.childlist.  Will this work?  How are document windows related to
the menu list?  When are the titles added, when created or when the menu is
activated?

	Any ideas?  Any warning, I hope this is not as convoluted as getting
arrow keys to work in diialogs!!!

rockin' on

ps.  This is a .edu site, but I'm OUT, ie, not an asssignment
