Visual Basic Reference
WindowList Property
Returns or sets a value that determines whether a Menu object maintains a list of the current MDI child windows in an MDIForm object. Read only at run time.
Syntax
object**.WindowList**
The object placeholder represents an object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.
Settings
The WindowList property settings are:
| Setting | Description |
| True | The Menu object maintains a list of open windows and displays a check mark next to the active window. Users can click a window name to activate that window. |
| False | (Default) The Menu doesn't maintain a list of open windows. |
Remarks
Many multiple-document interface (MDI) applications, such as Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Word for Windows, have a Window menu containing a list of open MDI child windows. This property enables you to add this functionality to your application.
Only one Menu object on a form can have its WindowList property set to True.
When you select the WindowList check box in the Menu Editor for a Menu object, the list of open MDI child windows for the menu you're creating is displayed.
