multi forms - form1 not reloading

[crabramson]

thank you very much sir
it works great now

in the future it would be more helpful if you gave examples of code, but nonetheless you're very helpful indeed

one problem i faced:
it was doubling null fields in the listbox when I generated the student report so i added an if statement to check for null before output

That depends on your definition of helpful. It might make it easier for you if I provided the code for you but I don't post here to make it easy for people. I post to help people become better developers and I find that the best way to do that is to push people to think for themselves because that's how you learn. As has been born out by the result, you actually did already know how to solve your own problem so you didn't need me to write the code for you. If I can make people think first and ask questions later instead of having other people do their thinking for them as a first option then I've been as helpful as I possibly can. You'll thank me in years to come.
