Visible status of form

[algea]

Hi,
I have a different kind of issue inside my code. I can not use my code as era. I have a simple code to make form drop from visible status but it is not working. I could not manage this problem.
Thanks all

//This is my code

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        Me.Visible = False
    End Sub
End Class

You can not do this to your main form as discussed here

That page KI linked to is very old and a bit outdated. I would suggest:

1. Set the form's WindowState to Minimized, either in the designer or in code after creating the instance.
2. Set the form's ShowInTaskbar to False, either in the designer or in code after creating the instance.
3. Handle the Shown event of the form, which is raised after the form is displayed for the first time.
4. In the event handler, set the form's Visible to False and then change the other properties if desired.

Why this information has changed inside vb.net that comes from VB1. it is old but does not allow to treat with this way
