Open a form by clicking a button on another form

[Adam]

I thought something like:

 

frmName.Show() or

frmName.Load() or

frmName.Open

 

Course it won't work, and I left my Dummies book at the office. :)

You need to create an instance of your form first:

Dim frmName As New SomeFormType
frmName.Show()

[Adam]

Dim frmSomeform As Form
       frmSomeform.Show()

 

equals :(

 

The form is created. I just want to call it up.

If it is created then you would have to keep the reference to the instance of that form in a variable and then use the Show method with that variable.

Can you point me to some examples.

I'm very new to this and I'm having to take lots of baby steps.... but it's been fun.

 

Very late, very tired.

Thanks for helping.

 

catch everyone later.
