I have an MDI app (running in WindowsXP) which offers a range of differently
designed windows as a domestic accounting system. Each window represents a
different kind of account. As it stands, the user may enter info to any or all
of these windows and they are all stored in one file.
I would like to make it possible for clones of any of these windows to be
created in order to record more than one of a particular kind of account. I
thought it might not be possible since unlike other controls, the initial
window can not be given a "0" index. But I found that if I declare in the App
properties "wX(0) as window" and "wXcount as integer" (actually, a different
one of each of these for each kind of window offered hence the X) then I can
add a Menu item FileNew as:
wX(wcount)=New WindowX
wXcount=wXcount+1
and get an array of windows.
My question is simply, is this a sensible way to do it?
(Of course, I realize that the file becomes more complicated since the MDI Menu
Bar will have to accommodate all the windows but I think I can cope with it -
if I have confirmation that it can be done in this way)
Regards
Bernard
