Client Area

The area between an MDI Frame title bar and the MicroHelp status bar is called the Client Area and it is here that the sheets are opened. The Client area is automatically resized to take into account menus, toolbars and help status bars that are attached to any of the sheets.

However, if you paint any object in the frame window, this automatic resizing is canceled and resizing the client area has to be done programmatically.
