Open Multiple forms

Hi All,

I have a question regarding an application that I am working on. I want to create multiple datagrid/dataset based on the value that the user inputs into a numericUpDown control. I want to be able to store data in multiple datagrid based on the value that is entered into the NumericUpDown control.


For example if the user enters the value 2 into the numericUpDown control I want the program to create two datagrid in separate forms (datagrid1 in one form and datagrid2 in second form).


I am using VB.Net 2003.

Any help on this would be greately apprecaited. thanks

Do you know how to create and display one form? If so then you simply execute the same code more than once. How do you do the same thing more than once? You use a loop. How do you determine how many times to loop? From the Value property of the NUD.

Here is what I have thus far:

Code:

---

'To create a form, and to display it I would do this:

DIM myForm1 as NEW NAME

myForm1.ShowDialog()

---

Code:

---

'Now to Create Multiple form based on the the value inside of NUD

DIM I as Integer
DIM FORM AS NEW Name


For i = Value_Increment.Value to 10 Step Value_Increment.Value
        myForm(i).showDialog  '<== it gives me an error in this line.  why?

Next

Can you tell me what I am missing here. I have followed what was recommended.

the above code works but not the way I want it to work. It opens the same form twice. Instead, I want to open two different forms, each containing different datagrid.

myForm(i).showDialog is referring to an ARRAY called myForm -

If that first code snippet is what you do to open one form then that second snippet is NOT executing that operation multiple times. If the code to open one form is X then to perform X the number of times specified in a NumericUpDown would be:

vb.net Code:

For i As Integer = 1 To CInt(myNumericUpDown.Value) Step 1
    X
Next i

Your first code snippet is X.
