Newbie Q: What is the code to start new form?

[Genxcop]

I have just started VB programming.

I have a form at the start and some text boxes on it.
I have a command button at the bottom and when I press the command button i want it to load another particular form.

it is like making a command button linked to msgbox but i dont want msgbox. I want another sub form.

Thanks all!!

Is this what you are asking for?

Code:
--------------------------
'Make a CommandButton called cmdButton on the first form and copy this code onto the form.

'Make another form at design time, with the name frmAnother.frm

'Run the project and click cmdButton and the other form shows.

Private Sub cmdButton_Click()

Load frmAnother
frmAnother.Show

End Sub

That is right, but you do not need "Load Form2".
Show is enough.

Private Sub Command1_Click()

    Form2.Show
    
End Sub

How do i make it that when i load the second form the first form will disappear??

[c@lle]

to hide the first window:

frmOne.hide

[YoungBuck]

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Load Form2
    Form2.Show

    Form1.Hide
    Unload Form1

End Sub

You can also use

FrmTwo.Show 1

This way, the 2nd form is modal. So, you can't switch back to the 1st form, until FrmTwo.Hide.
(Like a normal Messagebox)
