    <p>If you have multiple monitors, I believe the screen UI dimensions are simply larger. So the normal "1 monitor" approach of storing and restoring the location will just work. I haven't tried this because I am away from my second monitor but it shouldn't be hard to test. The way you asked the Question is seems like you haven't tested it. </p> <p>Your second requirement will mean you will have to check the max sceen dimensions when restoring the app, and then reposition as necessary. To do this latter bit, I use this code:</p> <pre><code> private System.Drawing.Rectangle ConstrainToScreen(System.Drawing.Rectangle bounds) { Screen screen = Screen.FromRectangle(bounds); System.Drawing.Rectangle workingArea = screen.WorkingArea; int width = Math.Min(bounds.Width, workingArea.Width); int height = Math.Min(bounds.Height, workingArea.Height); // mmm....minimax int left = Math.Min(workingArea.Right - width, Math.Max(bounds.Left, workingArea.Left)); int top = Math.Min(workingArea.Bottom - height, Math.Max(bounds.Top, workingArea.Top)); return new System.Drawing.Rectangle(left, top, width, height); } </code></pre> <p>I call this method when restoring the form. I store the screen geometry in the registry on form close, and then read the geometry on form open. I get the bounds, but then constrain the restored bounds to the actual current screen, using the method above. </p> <p>Save on close: </p> <pre><code> // store the size of the form int w = 0, h = 0, left = 0, top = 0; if (this.Bounds.Width &lt; this.MinimumSize.Width || this.Bounds.Height &lt; this.MinimumSize.Height) { // The form is currently minimized. // RestoreBounds is the size of the window prior to last minimize action. w = this.RestoreBounds.Width; h = this.RestoreBounds.Height; left = this.RestoreBounds.Location.X; top = this.RestoreBounds.Location.Y; } else { w = this.Bounds.Width; h = this.Bounds.Height; left = this.Location.X; top = this.Location.Y; } AppCuKey.SetValue(_rvn_Geometry, String.Format("{0},{1},{2},{3},{4}", left, top, w, h, (int)this.WindowState)); </code></pre> <p>Restore on form open: </p> <pre><code> // restore the geometry of the form string s = (string)AppCuKey.GetValue(_rvn_Geometry); if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(s)) { int[] p = Array.ConvertAll&lt;string, int&gt;(s.Split(','), new Converter&lt;string, int&gt;((t) =&gt; { return Int32.Parse(t); })); if (p != null &amp;&amp; p.Length == 5) this.Bounds = ConstrainToScreen(new System.Drawing.Rectangle(p[0], p[1], p[2], p[3])); } </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
