WindowsApplication with MDI

VB

hi all,

I'm working with MDI Application and Creating Menus in it. I have come across an issue explained below.

1) we have a child window (say Send Form) having property WindowState as Maximized.
2) another child window (say Add Form) having property WindowState as Normal.

Now the issue is when I first open Send Form it appears maximized state but next when I open Add form both Add Form and Send Form are in MAXIMIZED state.

similarly,
when I First open Add Form then I open Send Form and then I get Focus (by using objAddForm.Activate()) back to Add Form now both Child Forms are in NORMAL state.



This is Parent form code:

Public Class Form1


    Private Sub ExitToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ExitToolStripMenuItem.Click
        Me.Close()
    End Sub

    Dim frmFile As Add
    Private Sub AddToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles AddToolStripMenuItem.Click
        If frmFile Is Nothing Then
            frmFile = New Add()
            frmFile.MdiParent = Me
            frmFile.Show()
        Else
            frmFile.MdiParent = Me
            frmFile.Activate()
        End If


    End Sub

    Dim frmSend As Send
    Private Sub SendToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles SendToolStripMenuItem.Click
        If frmSend Is Nothing Then
            frmSend = New Send()
            frmSend.MdiParent = Me
            frmSend.Show()
        Else
            frmSend.MdiParent = Me
            frmSend.Activate()
        End If
    End Sub

    Dim frmSettings As Settings
    Private Sub SettingsToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles SettingsToolStripMenuItem.Click
        frmSettings = New Settings()
        frmSettings.MdiParent = Me
        frmSettings.Show()
    End Sub
End Class

This is Add Form Code

Public Class Add

End Class

This is Send Form Code

Public Class Send

End Class

I have just started the application just to know how MDI is implemented so you can't find much code in it.

Pls help me.

Please suggest me a solution for it.

Sorry, if any one feels my English is bad.

Thanks in Advance,
Rohith.
