I would like to do the same in my Appeon application. My main window is a PFC-inherited MDI frame.

Any ideas as to how this can be achieved?

  FWIW: I would go with a Pop-Up window with no title floating over top of the MDI Frame window instead of a user object. That way, it would not interfere with MDI_1. Food for thought.

Thanks Chris.

A bit like pfc w_statusbar.

Definitely worth a try if all else fails.
