Forms and Message Box do not show on Active EXE

Hi, I created an Active EXE that contain a visible form, and that also uses a Main() sub as the start up. The form can be shown when a client makes a call to the Active EXE's public class. However, when I try to run the Active EXE in a stand alone fashion, my form and message box do NOT show up! Even after I put form.show in the Main() sub. Can anyone tell me why this is happening?

Not sure. Are you positive you've set the startup properly?

Also, I was always under the impression that ActiveX EXEs were just for creating objects from.. not to run stand alone.. I guess they should do though.

Try changing the startup object to the form, rather than Sub Main().

It should work fine and you can use App.StartMode to see if it was startes as an exe or a component.
