I'm new to VB2010 but have some experience with VB6. Some things are very different but I've managed to create a MDI Parent and a child. The child has no border or control box with a graphic for the background. It is set to start up maximized.
The parent form has a toolstrip button bar and displays the child when the correct button is pressed. So far so good .. but the problem is that when the button is pressed the child form shows up but it does not fill the available real estate in the parent - there are borders on the right and bottom.

However, as soon as I do the very slightest resize of the parent form the child will maximize as desired. I never had this happen in VB6 so I have no idea what's going on here. Can someone help?
TIA,
Ken
