Using the DockingPane control I can attach a form to a Pane by setting the form's .hwnd to the Pane.Handle during the _AttachPane event.

But is there any other way to do this?
Or can it only be done by this Event?

You can set the .Handle property of the pane to the hWnd of the form (or picturebox) at any time after it's been created.

So to create and attach form:

Dim A As Pane
Set A = DockingPaneManager.CreatePane(1, 200, 120, DockLeftOf)
A.Title = "Pane A"
A.Handle = Form1.hWnd

Thanks, that is good.

(I thought I'd tried it without success, but if I know it should work then I will try harder).
