T-Light,
I believe what you want is a MDI interface. (Multiple Document Interface) as used in Microsoft Word, Photoshop etc.

I tried looking for a way to do this but then ended up using tabs instead. You draw a separate "window" to each tab so your user can tab between instances of the program.
Just a suggesion,
Seb
