The question is not clear; the code sample manifesting the problem is not provided, there is not real issue report.

However, I can give you a good advice: never use MDI. The use of this extremely inconvenient UI style is highly discourages even my Microsoft. No professional or more or less reasonably designed UI use this approach. Such UI would only scare off all your users. The simplest good alternative is using Tabbing UI based on TabControl. This is much easier to implement, convenient and well accepted be the users.
