Accessing MDI Form from a Module

[ishaaseja]

In My VB 6 application, I used a module to set some properties of the controls on the MDI Form. Is it possible in VB.NET??

How would it get an access to the Form.

I thought of creating a Form Object using a New() Statement on the MDI Form but then realised that it would just create an object and would not refer to the actual MDI Form.

Please suggest.

Hi,

In your module function Accept the MDIForm as an argument. While you wan't to control the MDIForm with your module level function you pass the MDI form variable to that function as argument.

Just a note - ensure that the variable in the function mentioned above is passed by reference. VB.NET defaults to by value.
