mdi parents

Hello, I am working on a windows application in C#.NET 2.0. I am using an MDI form with multiple buttons on it. Clicking on the buttons opens a child form. Now, the problem i am facing is that the buttons on the parent form are coming on the top of the child forms and not hiding behind. I need the child form to cover the controls on the MDI form. Would appreciate if someone can guide me in the correct direction.

You say you want the child forms to be on top of the buttons. Do you need to open a child form when another child form is shown? I think you are trying to say that you need to have only one child form shown at a time.

If so, then one thing you need to do is to not use MDI forms; they are not designed to work that way.

Perhaps you need to use a TabControl.

this is Simple My Friend, first you have in enable false at form load ok . when you come the child form and close it on that time you have write code "From1.Enable = true"; hope this would be help full for you.
