Hello,

I'm reading through Chris Sells & Michael Weinhardt's Windows Forms
2.0 Programming book, and finding it incredibly useful as a quick-
reference manual. Reading up on the Splitter & SplitContainer
controls, they mention that "you may need to use the pre-Windows Forms
2.0 Splitter control for MDI applications."

Browsing through their MDI application chapter, I see no further
mention of the Splitter or SplitContainer. Under what conditions would
you need to use a Splitter rather than a SplitContainer?

Thanks,
Evan
