multi forms - form1 not reloading

[crabramson]

Hi I am using two forms.
Form 1 organizes student information from a textfile
Form 2 appends a new student

I load the second form with:

Dim secondForm As New Form2
        secondForm.ShowDialog()

It loads, cool..
When I close form 2 with me.close, form 1 does not have the updated information.

Any ideas? Thanks
