There not a lot of details for us to go on, but if you are using mdi then the child windows will be the same window state for all child mdi forms. Try stepping thru your code on a button click to see if other code is being run which is setting or changing the windowsstate.

Hi i am new to this field. I have actually set the main form's window property true for ismdiContainer. Also set window state to maximize and MinimumBox property to False. And i have set the window state for all forms as maximum and Minimum Box property to false. Still it is showing the same problem. First all forms appear in full size mode but when i click on any button to show data all forms go back to minimize state.

This goes against everything the normal operation of how mdicontainers should work.

Can you add or show the code you have for the form to display the data. if you are creating a form via code it will also need to be set according the solution provided.
