'''MDI Example (Child From)
'''Place in Form_Load
Me.Left = (MDIMain.ScaleWidth - Me.Width) / 2
Me.Top = (MDIMain.ScaleHeight - Me.Height) / 2

===
''' SDI Example
''' Place in Forms's Form_Resize () or Form_Load() Event
'Centers Form (if not minimized or maximized.)
If WindowState = 0 Then
Move (Screen.Width - Screen.ActiveForm.Width) / 2, (Screen.Height - Screen.ActiveForm.Height) / 2
End If
===
''' SDI (Using Sub)
'''Usage: sCenterForm Me

Sub sCenterForm (mForm As Form)
Dim mTop As Integer, mLeft As Integer
If mForm.WindowState <> 0 Then Exit Sub
mTop = (Screen.Height - mForm.Height) \ 2
mLeft = (Screen.Width - mForm.Width) \ 2
mForm.Move mLeft, mTop

End Sub
