You don't need an Mdi setup to do that. It is possible to do in tab pages, though I'm not saying it's a good idea. You will you will not get designer support for this. You have to create your forms as if they were normal, then you have to modify the forms and add them to the appropriate TabPages in your code. There is a hidden little property of a form call
TopLevel. Set this property to False, then you can add the form to any container that holdsControlobjects.A guide to posting questions on CodeProject[^]
