Hi andy

First you are not in the good mailing list !

How to use the WorkSpace ?

Put a workspace area on your futur mdiform(for the exemple named mdiForm)

after create a other form named 'frmChild' for example

in the mdiform, call the child by :

Dim hForm as frmChild

hForm = New frmChild(WorkSpace)

In fact the frmChild is child of WorkSpace !
Use the Component explorer to understand the WorksPACE options, like the 
arrangement, or any thing else !
Think to use the move property of the workspace widget, to place and resize 
it, in the _Resize event of the mdiform

I think you need to use the split component too, it's easy to use !, just 
place the componant in it , they are automatiquely placed, in this case you 
must to manage the split component in the _resize event !
