Thomas,

[in addition to Dorin's suggestion, you should take a look at the following form-properties and -events:

Form.Dock()
Form.DockPosition
Form.Dockable
Form.Docked

You can test, whats possible with those, just by activating the following windows in VFP: Commandwindow, Data Sessions, Properties, Documentview. Then rightclick their windowcaptions an activate 'dockable'. Now you can test docking behaviours with those windows by dragging one on another.]

Interesting thought, Thomas. We are planning on giving the user the ability to reposition containers on the main form and then saving those locations and repositioning them when they revisit the same scenario later. We have played with docking the containers a little bit, but not much.

We'll look into it.

Thanks for the information. We appreciate it!

Scott
