Hello All,
I have a MDI form which has a child form that has a fixed position that can't be moved or resized. The program is coded to open up and maximize external applications inside the child form. This all works correctly execept for the following issue.
I have my computer hooked up to two monitors and my desktop spans across both. Whenever my VB app is on the primary monitor, everything works correctly. Whenever I move my app to the secondary monitor and try to open and maximize the external apps, the apps. open up fine, but when they are maximized i cannot see the apps at all. If i change the child form so that it can be resized, and then stretch the forms all the way accross to the left so they display on both monitors, i can see the app on the right monitor(secondary) on the right side of the child form. If I move the VB app. to the primary(left) monitor after opening the ext. app from the secondary(right) monitor i still can't see the ext. app. But, if I open the ext. app while the VB app is on the primary monitor, and then move the VB app to the secondary monitor everything displays fine.
If this doesn't make since or if I need to clarify what i am talking about, please let me know. If anyone has any ideas on why i am having this issues, or knows of a way to fix this, please let me know. I'd appreciate the help. Thanks!
