Multi-document probably means you need to create multiple copies of the
same window, as you would in an MDI app.

Interactions and updating between the multiple-documents is achieved in
exactly the same way you would achieve it in an MDI app.

Neither of these things mean you have to constrain your users from showing
different documents on different screens.

I may just be being dim, I've written MDI apps in C and VB when they were
what the customer wanted but I haven't written one for years.

I'd be genuinely interested in examples of things that anyone thinks they
can do with an MDI interface that they can't do without it, except to
arbitrarily restrict where the user can put her windows.
