I'd like to have multiple active draw areas (a la HTML
frames) in my app, but am not sure what the general
approach should be.

Here are some strategies I've considered...

Perhaps I should be using one main form, and then several
windows as clipping regions. If so, then how can I get
one form to draw in multiple windows?

Or maybe I should have multiple forms drawn at the same
time, and then switch back and forth between them when
the user clicks outside the "active" one. This sure
doesn't seem like anything I've ever seen done before!
And then how do I dynamically resize the forms if the
user tries to resize one of the frames?

Or should I abandon forms altogether and do something
lower-level? I'd like to have the convenience of using
Forms for drawing fields, tables, etc, though.

Any thoughts (or references to source code!) would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ken
