I think not.

-make mdi window (frame) ..create dialog as child to this frame.
-make mdi window child (frame as parent).. create dialog as child to this mdi child



my two cents.

I have a dialog that I redefine from resource, and I wanted to add a MDI child to that dialog...

[ukoenig]

FUNCTION DLG_MAIN()
LOCAL oDlg1

DEFINE DIALOG oDlg1 RESOURCE "MAIN" TITLE "Main-Dialog" TRANSPARENT
...
...
ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg1 CENTER ;
ON INIT DLG_CHILD( oDlg1 )

RETURN( NIL )

// ------------------

FUNCTION DLG_CHILD( oDlg1 )
LOCAL oDlg2

DEFINE DIALOG oDlg2 OF oDlg1 RESOURCE "CHILD" TITLE "Child-Dialog" TRANSPARENT
...
...
ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg2 NOWAIT

RETURN NIL
