Mdi, panel, forms in C#

[Carol]

Hello

I'm using Visual Studio.NET and C#.
The problem is that I have a form that
is a MdiContainer (parent). I use a
panel with a backgroundimage. The childform
displays behind the panel so I can't see it. I have also tried to put the backgroundimage directly on the Parentform but then the childform
can be dragged all over the form and becasue
I have another panel to the left in the Parentform, I don't want the childform to be dragged over the panel. How do I set the bounds on the Parent-form? Is it possible to make a panel a MdiContainer? Or if non of this work does
anybody know how to solve this problem?

Thanks for the help I can get

If you dock a Panel in your parent form then the child forms will not be draggable over it? Do you do this already?
