You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I had to make this project for school, figured I let some people learn from it. In case you don't know what MDI is, it stands for Multiple Document Interface. This is a very simple Notepad program with only a few options but is a good tool to learn from. I did not comment the code, however, if there are questions.. post them here. Enjoy.

  • Open Existing Files
  • Save/Save As

I have an advanced version of this with an entire menu bar as well. I can't tell, but I don't think you added scroll bars did you? This is very very basic.

Background and text color is interchangeable with the rgb color box. Saves in .txt format. And opens .txt

Edit: (Sept 2011) lol what a shitty application this notepad was...
I edited the OP, and added the features to it. The only thing I didn't add that it appears you have is the option to change color. Since this was a school project I didn't need to. Yours doesn't use MDI does it?
