Description

Indicates transitional state information about the form.

Read FormState to determine the state of the form. FormState indicates when the form is in various transitional states or when certain Windows operations have occurred. The following table lists the values that can be included in a form's state:

Value	Meaning
fsCreating	The form's constructor is currently executing.
fsVisible	The form's window is visible. This state is used to update the Visible property.
fsShowing	The form's WindowState property is changing. This state is used to prevent WindowState changes from interfering with a transition that is in progress.
fsModal	The form was created as a modal window.
fsCreatedMDIChild	The form is an MDI parent window. This state is only set once the MDI client window has been created.
fsActivated	The form has received a CM_ACTIVATE message (because it received focus or the application became active) but has not yet called the Activate method to generate an OnActivate event.
