DoCenterMdiDialog - MdiDialog

Locates an MDI Dialog in the center of the MDI client area

Type: Procedure

Syntax

Procedure DoCenterMdiDialog

Call Example

Send DoCenterMdiDialog

Description

The DoCenterMdiDialog message locates an MDI Dialog in the center of the MDI client area. Its subclasses View, dbView and ReportView inherit this behavior.

This can be sent at any time. An ideal place to send this is inside the Activate method, following the 'forward send' statement:

Procedure Activate
   Forward Send Activate
   Send DoCenterMdiDialog
End_Procedure

The Locate_Mode property is not intended for use with MDI dialogs (View or dbView objects). While the class understands the message, it will not do anything useful. Use DoCenterMdiDialog instead.
