Multi Forms

[MartinCroft]

Hi

I have two forms, formA & FormB

if i call form B from a button on formA
with the following code

Dim frmNew As New FormB
frmNew.Show()

formB opens up successfully,both forms are accessible I added a button on formB withthe following

me.hide

exspecting it to close formB however it closes everything down. tried formB.activeform.hide still the same

how do i close B without closing the application

cheers

You could replace : frmNew.Show()
with frmNew.ShowDialog()

With this you won't have access to formA untill frmNew is closed.(same thing happens when you call the messagebox.show; if you dont hit any button, the parent form will remain non-accessible)
