Can't figure this one out.  I'm running a vfp app in .net app using DartSock.  The VFP forms show in the desktop (but not in toolbar) instead of the .net MDI form, so I can show them in seperate monitors if I need to.

The only problem is (and I noticed this too when I use only .net forms), when I minimize the parent form, the children don't minimize along with it.

How could I override the wndProc sub of the .net form, so I can capture the minimize/maximize button click on the main form?  I can't figure out which value in m tells me the form has minimized. I know that once I can capture that, I can hadle the child forms through API calls.

Thanks.

    Case WM_SIZE

        If m.WParam.ToInt32 = SIZE_MAXIMIZED Then
             If Me._OpenedWindows.Count > 0 Then
                    For Each lsValue In Me._OpenedWindows.Values
                           lnValue = CInt(lsValue)
                           ShowWindow(lnValue, SW_RESTORE)

It's not necessarily wrong, just something to think about in the future if you ever don't want to process the base class code, and in this case, I think you did it right.
