SubForms

[fredriko]

Does anybody know how I can embed one form in another?
I have a form very much like an open dialog which is opened when users click certain buttons throughout my application. This works fine however I have a form now where it would be much easier to simply embed the standalone form into a parent (rather than use showdialog I want to add it to a panel control and remove its border).
Access does something similar to this and I've seen examples in vb.net before but I cannot seem to find them any more.

MDI is the standard setup of forms within form. You can also add a form to a panel by setting the Parent and Toplevel=False properties of child form, but it is some work making it fit.
