thank you...

You would better try to clarify your question.What exactly you are trying to do?You want non-resizable MDI child frame or what...

Hi, :-O
I found my answer and test code, it's correct,
// ====================================
// Size & Fix Mode
// my child frame class is:
class CDBChild : public CMDIChildWnd

// in my form view class:
class CDBView : public CFormView

// in function:
void CDBView::OnInitialUpdate()

// with this code:
RECT sz_window,sz_panel;
GetDlgItem(IDC_STATIC_DB_PANEL)->GetWindowRect(&sz_panel);
GetParent()->ModifyStyle(WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW ,WS_BORDER |WS_CAPTION |WS_SYSMENU |WS_MINIMIZEBOX);

CDBChild* pChild = ((CDBChild*)GetParent());
ScreenToClient((LPRECT)&sz_panel);
// sz_window = ((CDBChild*)GetParent())->m_Rect;
const int nHashie = 9;
sz_window = sz_panel;
sz_window.bottom += (2*nHashie + 2*8 + 1*28);// sz_panel.bottom - sz_panel.top + 10;
sz_window.right += (2*nHashie + 2*8);// = sz_panel.right - sz_panel.left + 10;

GetParent()->MoveWindow(&sz_window);
((CDBChild*)GetParent())->ShowWindow(SW_RESTORE);
((CDBChild*)GetParent())->BringWindowToTop();

// make new window have fix size & not resizable.
// ====================================

A fixed-size child form in a MDI application doesn't make any sense, especially when you consider the Tile/Cascade or minimize/normalize/maximize abilites of a MDI child form.

You should be considering the use of a modeless dialog box instead. At that point, you can make the dialog box not re-sizable by simple property settings.

If you insist on not adhering to the standard MDI-child functionality, you may be able to simply handle the various organizing events and omit that window from the natural order of things. Personally, I think that's a bad idea.
