Could you give me an example where to put that flag, I haven't been able to make it work. Below is sample code from your MDI Ribbon sample, how would you set that flag in this code?

    Dim Control As CommandBarControl
    Dim ControlFile As CommandBarPopup
    Dim ControlAbout As CommandBarControl

    Dim RibbonBar As RibbonBar
    Set RibbonBar = CommandBars.AddRibbonBar("The Ribbon")
    RibbonBar.EnableDocking xtpFlagStretchedShared



    Set ControlFile = RibbonBar.AddSystemButton()
    ControlFile.IconID = ID_SYSTEM_ICON
    ControlFile.CommandBar.Controls.Add XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_new, "&New", False, False
    ControlFile.CommandBar.Controls.Add XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_OPEN, "&Open...", False, False
    Set Control = ControlFile.CommandBar.Controls.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_PRINT_SETUP, "Pr&int Setup...", False, False)
    Control.BeginGroup = True
    Set Control = ControlFile.CommandBar.Controls.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_MRU_FILE1, "Recent File", False, False)
    Control.BeginGroup = True
    Control.Enabled = False
    Set Control = ControlFile.CommandBar.Controls.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_APP_EXIT, "E&xit", False, False)
    Control.BeginGroup = True
    ControlFile.CommandBar.SetIconSize 32, 32

    Set ControlAbout = RibbonBar.Controls.Add(XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlType.xtpControlButton, ID_APP_ABOUT, "&About", False, False)
    ControlAbout.Flags = XtremeCommandBars.XTPControlFlags.xtpFlagRightAlign

Seting the flag here does not hide the controlbox for the MDI child

    ControlAbout.Flags = xtpFlagHideMDIButtons

You're right, without Commandbars VB does the same, the difference I just found though is without commandbars if you set controlbox=false maxbutton=true, the child is displayed but the child controlbox is not visible, with commandbars it is, (The X and maximize button is for the child)]]> Tue, 30 Oct 2007 09:23:38 +0000 http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=8588&PID=27868&title=mdi-child-w-o-control-box#27868 <![CDATA[MDI child w/o control box : Hi, Set WindowState to Normal....]]> http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=8588&PID=27852&title=mdi-child-w-o-control-box#27852 Author: Oleg

Hi,

Set WindowState to Normal. (from Maximized). Standard Application without any Codejock controls works same.

If you have a ribbonbar on a MDI parent and have a child set to "controlbox=false" "minbutton=false" and "maxbutton=false" the child form is not displayed when loaded.
