Catching minimize event

[sjembek]

Hi, What event should I catch if I want to replace the minimize button code. I've tried catching the "Sizechanged" event but this fires every time a window is opened or resized, I only want to catch the event caused by the minimize button. I want to use this to create an application specific "taskbar" for all of my MDI client windows. Thanks in advance for any suggestions made!

size changed; and test whether form.WindowState is minimized.

Ah ok, thanks. That worked. Now we're at it, would anyone happen to know how to make my mdi client window dock to its parent? Thanks again, cheers.

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking. Do you mean maximizing it?

[sjembek]

I mean having it stick to a specific side of its parent, just like controls can. Actually, this is easier than I though. Just set an mdi parent and set the dock property for you form to try it out.
