In VB6 it was easy...

frmMain.Control.Property

Now, as i understand it, in VB.NET you need to create a new instance of that form...ie

VB Code:
  1. Dim frmMain as New form

  2. frmMain = New frmMain

  3.  
  4. frmMain.Control.Property

Is that right?

If so i cant get it to work...

and another problem i have with creating a new instance of a form is that, if that form has a notifyicon attached to it (it shows in the systray), then when the new instance is created, so is the icon in the systray...

Sorry if I'm a bit all over the place... but im having trouble explaining what i mean (as usual )

Thanks in advance for any help offered.
