    Using Show

    Hello everyone,


    I have recently upgraded to Visual Studio.NET, and although i had read, it was a changed language, i didnt know it would be like this. I am pleased with its capabilities, but cant figure out something very basic in VB6 and below. Show I dont know how to show another form. Stupid i know, but if some1 could tell me, this would be great



    Sorry about this, heh

    when you design a form in design mode, usually the form has a name, Form1.

    so what you want to do then is say

    VB Code:
    1. Dim TestForm as New Form1

    2. TestForm.ShowDialog()

    If you want to show it as a modal for ie. Dialog box then :

    dim frm as new myformname
    frm.showdialog()

    Else

    dim frm as new myformname
    frm.show()





    Note: If it is the main start-up form then

    dim frm as new myMainForm

    Application.Run(frm)

    Hang in there - we all got caught -
