Menus - Window Lists

James Crowley

Window Lists

If you are using a MDI Form in your application you will want a menu that lists all the open windows. To do this follow these steps:

1) Select the MDI form or MDI Child Form

2) Select Tools | Menu Editor

3) Click the menu or menu item you want to list the open windows and check the box which says window list.

4) Click OK

The menu will then list any windows you have open within the MDI Form.
