I didn't restrict mine like that but you could probably do one of several things. 
1. Remove the Control Box on the child form completely
2. Disable the X on the window using the Win32 API
3. Change the BorderStyle property on the form to suit your needs.

Hope this helps or at least gets you on the path to what you want!

how do you fix the child window from being maniupulated like a true child window? ie.... being maxmized, tiled, etc.

I did this.  I used a taskpane on the left side of a MDI form.  In the pane I put a shortcutbar.  On the shortcutbar when you click a shortcut item I show a form which has a vbAccelerator treeview.  Then...in the NodeClick event of the treeview you can show the mdiChild form which will fill the rest of the main window.

I kinda pieced this together using the codejock samples for shortcutbar and Outlook 2003 sample.
