Supposing I had a small app. (3 Tables) with 4 forms.
1 being the MDIFRAME; 2,3 &4 being data entry forms.
2 being the main form and 3 and 4 being mostly sub forms (i.e. less dynamic). But, I would like all three to be open (in tile format) on the MDIFRAME (unless the user wants to minimize or cascade or …).
How could I do this?

See IOOPTIONS for the ignore self-lock option to have 3 forms open against the same record.
See Start_MDIChild to open MDI child windows. (Call it 3 times I guess.)
See Send_Message with MDITILE … send it to the MDI frame after opening the child windows.
Does that answer the question?
