A mdi component editor

[s***@hotmail.com]

Hi all,

i was wondering if someone could maybe help me with some trouble i'm
having.

i'm in the process of building a component editor. this consists of an
object
derived from TComponentEditor, and an edit form that is being called
from
this editor. very basic until here, and i got that working.

the problem is, that i want the edit form to be a MDI style form, using
several
MDI-child windows. when i create an mdi child inside the main form, i
get an
error stating that there is no mdi window defined. (i already
double-checked
the FormStyle properties of the main form and the child form)

my quess is that since the component editor (and the edit form) reside
in
delphi-
space, when the MDI-child window looks for a parent MDI form it looks
at the
delphi main form. and that aint no MDI form.

Still i need to use the MDI style functionallity in the component
editor.

Could you maybe give me some pointers here?

Thanks in advance,
