For simplicity, you don't "leave" the MDI container; you create a new (non-mdi) form and copy / use the state from the former; then hide / close the former.

I have a similar problem. This question was asked in 2008 and no one ever replied. Searching web does not find an answer either. Working backward I found that when you use a parameter "this.Text" or anything with "this" you cannot add it from the Toolbox. The control works as expected with each instance of the tool working from its own parameters. You can copy and paste it with out problem with out problem. You just cannot get it from the Toolbox.
So many years of programming I have forgotten more languages than I know.
I KNEW you would say that.

Hi thx Richard for that info Not familiar with recursion, but now you've helped me improve my understanding of treeviews. I did circumvent the problem by updating node properties as they are created. I can post that code if it might help others. demac ;)
I would recreate a new tree-view and fill it with items found. Then switch the between the two different tree-view controls. lol, just noticed the date. Why do they have 14 year old threads on here..
