Hello, is there any way to set the boundaries of a child window within a parent window? For example, if I maximise the child window it doesn't just fill the the whole parent window, just a predefined space within the parent.

Also, I'm having trouble with parent window controls such as statusbar, which reduces the area the child window can use but doesn't seem to notify the child window. So on maximise the child window still maximises to the area as if the statusbar is not there, thus the bottom of the child window gets overlapped by the statusbar and is annoyingly hidden.

Has anybody already written a set of functions for working with child windows?

Thanks

why do you need to see the status bar of multiple windows? There way be other options for you.

Or are you talking about your own gui's?


and there is always:

Thanks. Yes, I'm talking about my own GUIs. I'm writing a sales and stock tracking database and so there will me multiple tables which I will need multiple child windows for.

Hi, anyone any suggestions? Thanks
