I'll look into the VB angle.  All I have is a working version here.

Thanks.  Just another product of being lazy...:)

In some cases, I agree with you.  But if you want more than one
window/document to be visible, tab controls won't work.

Very odd.

Try CTRL+F6.  From the Win32 Programmer's Reference:
"Accelerator keys on the System menu for an MDI child window are different
from those for a non-MDI child window. In an MDI child window, the ALT+ -
(minus) key combination opens the System menu, the CTRL+F4 key combination
closes the active child window, and the CTRL+F6 key combination activates
the next child window."

I didn't know how to do it either, until I read that this morning...
