Access another form's control

I'm trying to access another form's panel control but wasn't successful. Here's what I have in form1 under buttonOK sub routin.

Dim myForm as New form2

myForm.showdialog()
myForm.panel1.visible = True
myForm.panel1.BringToFront()

But when form2 shows up, the panel wasn't visible and not bring to front. Will anyone give me a suggestion?

Many thanks in advance!

What happens when you use show instead of showdialog ?

Thanks for the effor. I got it working now. Actually, the showdialog() must be at the very bottom of the execution position.
