How do I check if form is already loaded?

This must be an easy question for you guys.

Thanks

If you meen another instance of your app then:
[code]
If App.PrevInstance Then
MsgBox "Already Running"
End
End if

gwdash, thats for the program, I think that sandra means form

and I think that this is what you want:

Code:

---

if form2.visible = true then
'form 2 is loaded
else
if form2.visivle = false then
'form 2 isn't loaded
end if

---

i know, i thought she might want program,

Sandra, once you've loaded a form, it's in the forms collection. so if you want to find out simply do something like this:

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim frmLocal As Form

  If Not FormLoaded("Form2") Then
      Load Form2
      MsgBox "Form Loaded"
  Else
      MsgBox "Form2 already loaded"
  End If
       
End Sub

Public Function FormLoaded(strForm As String) As Boolean
Dim frmLocal As Form

  FormLoaded = False
  For Each frmLocal In Forms
   
      If strForm = frmLocal.Name Then
        FormLoaded = True
        Exit For
      End If
 
  Next frmLocal

End Function

---

I would go with LAURENS suggestion because a form actually loads on first use. So if you check the Visible property the form will be loaded to check that property value.

Guys, you have been great! Yes, what Laurens said is exactly what I want, but I have learned something from other stuff posted here as an answer too.

Thanks!
