linking VB forms

[hazejean]

Still having difficulty linking to a "subform". Would appreciate any ideas. I have a main form with a variable number of check boxes. If the users selects a checkbox, I need to open another form with checkboxes etc. I may have several levels of forms.

 

Thanks

If you want to open a new form when a checkbox is selected then simply checking for the value in the CheckChanged event would do it. And then:

DIm formvar As New FormType
formvar.Show()

Or if this is not what you are looking for, could you please try to explain your problem again?

Question

 

I have following code

dim form2 as new form

form2.show()

 

It displays a blank form for form2.

My problems is how to get real code for form2 displayed?

 

I guess I don't see how code for mutiple forms is resident at the same time??? or is it???

 

Thanks

You are declaring a Form object, which is blank indeed. You need to create an object of the type you created. If your form is called Form2 then declare it like this:

Dim f2 As New Form2 'not Form but Form2

do you actually have a Form2 within your project?
