Hello, Rick,

According to the provided information, it seems to be more like a general programming question than to a question related to the Telerik UI for WinForms suite. After some research in StackOverflow and MSDN, I have found the following threads which are quite useful on this topic:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41068714/how-allows-showdialog-mdi-children-on-mdi-form-parent 

https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/b58e65a4-a88b-4106-bb6b-89478771e81d/call-an-childform-in-mdiparent-form-using-showdialog?forum=winforms 

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.

Rick, it seems that you are missing AddHandler for the events subscription which is necessary for VB.NET. Please refer to the following thread in StackOverflow demonstrating how to subscribe to events in VB:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7220438/subscribing-events-in-vb-net 

We don't have such sample projects as this scenario is not specific for the Telerik UI for WinForms suite but it is a general programming question regarding the entire WinForms MDI handling. I believe that the previously suggested threads may be suitable for achieving your goal.
