I've got a MDI application that is made on the resolution 1024 * 768
Some form are longer than 768 when extra information is asked. I want to scroll down (programmatically) when an user want to see the extra information.

Here an image with the normal info. (no needs to scroll)

Here an image when the extra info is ask but the extra info is not visible (bottom form)

I want to go to the bottom of the form so I can see the extra info like on this image:

So how do I scroll automaticly to the bottom of the child form
(scroll bar appears on the parent form) ??
 
Did you consider making forms that werent so huge? You know, like.. use a TabControl or soemthing?

Yes we considered that, but we want to make is so because the extra information is not much and in this way the basic information is stil in the window....

So is there someone who can help with this ?
