THis cannot be setup in the designer. You will have to listen to the Click in a event in the mdi main form in which you should get the ActiveMdiClient, cast it to your type and then call another method in that type.

thanx 4 ur answer ...... but ....

when i used below codes ---

Dim i As Integer
Dim p As Button

MsgBox(ActiveMdiChild.Controls.Count)
For i = 0 To ActiveMdiChild.Controls.Count - 1
MsgBox(ActiveMdiChild.Controls(i).Name)
If ActiveMdiChild.Controls(i).Name = "CmdAdd" Then
p = ActiveForm.Controls(i) // Error ?
p.PerformClick()
Exit For
End If
Next

i got error at the time of casting ... how can i remove this error ... error is --->

Specified cast is not valid ....
error at [ p = ActiveForm.Controls(i) ]
