I need to make an MDIChild window talk to its MDIForm. Specifically, I need
to be able to have a child window tell it's parent to create a new child
window.
Any one have any idea how to go about doing this?
 

can be many ways of informing MDIForm to do something.
One way could be sending custom message to MainForm's
WndProc().
--- MDI Child ---
// ...
SendMessage( Form1->Handle, MY_CREATE_NEW_FORM, 0, 0 );
// ...
--- MDI Form ( *.h ) ---
// ...
void __fastcall WndProc( TMessage & )
// ...
--- MDI Form ( *.cpp ) ---
// ...
#define MY_CREATE_NEW_FORM (WM_USER + 1000)
// ...
void __fastcall TForm1::WndProc( TMessage &Msg )
{
switch ( Msg.Msg )
{
case MY_CREATE_NEW_FORM:
// Your New Form Creation code ...
break;
// ...
}
TForm::WndProc( Msg );
}

virtual void __fastcall WndProc( TMessage &Message );
is a type TMsg.
