Sub Main

[Bloodstein]

I've got this module with a Sub Main() Method. In that, i'm making a call to show a form (frmBlah.Show()). Now, what happens is that, the form is shown but the program exits almost immediately. So basically, u get like a brief flash of the form and that's it.

 

I want the form to be shown and until the user exits the form, the form must remain visible and the program running. Is there anyway I can do this?

You need to invoke the frmBlah.ShowDialog()

This will cause the form to run modally and execution will stop at the calling routine. :)

Or :), if you want to run it like a normal application use this in your Sub Main:

Application.Run(New Form1) 'or whatever your form is called

This will start the message loop for your application.

Not knowing everything that makes your second form disappear, there might be a control on the first form that is being activated by the mouse which would cause the first form to be repainted over the second. Putting me.topmost = true in the second form will solve this problem.

 

Don't know your exact problem, but I hope this'll help.
