Message-ID: <1991Apr4.221002.20062@cec1.wustl.edu> Date: 4 Apr 91 22:10:02 GMT Organization: Washington University, St. Louis MO Lines: 17 I think I want to use win3's MDI (multiple doc interface) routines for my application, but I have a question. Can I (easily) incorporate non-mdi windows on the client space? I whipped up some prelimiary tests, and couldn't get the non-mdi windows to showup on top of the client space. Note that I don't want to just make the MDI client space smaller. To illustrate, imagine a multi-doc word processor that also has a couple of status/preview windows floating around that are NOT mdi clients. Easy do do this? thanks! dave dave@wucs1.wustl.edu the mira corporation 314/434-4343
