Checking if a form is active?

How can I check to see if a form is active?

what do you mean by "Active"..Visible?

yes, I mean visible

If you want to see if a form is visible, just check the visible flag :)

If Form1.Visible Then Do Whatever

if you want to see if the form is loaded just do a..

If Not Form1 Is Nothing Then Do Whatever

something like this :

VB Code:

Dim frm2 As New Form2()
If frm2.Visible = True Then
MsgBox("Form 2 is Visible")
Else
MsgBox("Form 2 is not Visible")
End If

huh , too late:D .Hinder solved it !

This is what is in my program right now:

Code:

---

    Private Sub FileSystemWatcher1_Changed(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.IO.FileSystemEventArgs) Handles FileSystemWatcher1.Changed
        Dim frm1 As New Form1()
        If frm1.Visible = False Then
            frm1.Visible = True
        End If
End Sub

When the filesystemwatcher is invoked more than one time I still end up with a bunch of forms.
