[RESOLVED] Move Form1

How can I change the position of form1 on the screen with code.

Form1.left=500, form1.top=500

If you intend to change both the X and Y coordinate it is better to set the Location property rather than the Top and Left individually, which is actually visible to the user, e.g.

VB Code:

form1.Location = New Point(500, 500)

Thank you!

Well its marked as resolved already, but I don't want to start a new thread for the same issue.

VB Code:

Form1.Left = Form1.Left + 200
Form1.Top = Form1.Top + 200

Why is that not working.

I'm going to guess that "Form1" is the name of a class. These are instance members, which means that you can only change their values for a specific instance of Form1, e.g.

VB Code:

Dim myForm1 As New Form1
 
myForm1.Left += 200
myForm1.Top += 200

If you want to use any members of the current instance you qualify them with "Me", e.g.

VB Code:

Me.Left += 200
Me.Top += 200

Strictly speaking the "Me." is not required, but it is good practice to include it for clarity and it means you get help from Intellisense as well.
