argh..so frustrated

[BHeemsoth]

I have alot of experience in VB, but for my IT101 project I need to use vs.net.

I have the entire bloody project done, except I cannot for the life of me get additional forms to load.

For example, I want to click a button on frmmain and load frmeasy.

In vb I would have done:

Load frmeasy
frmeasy.show
frmmain.hide


This does not work in VS.net, and neither does anything else I tried.

Someone please please please help me. I have been trying to figure this one stupid thing out for 2 hours.

Thanks ATOT!

Brian

Dim x As New frmeasy
x.Show()
MyClass.Hide()

Edit: Forgot about the MyClass, sorry

Are they all in the same namespace? Let Intellisense help you out a bit mah brutha. At a minimum, post the declaration (not the entire body please) of your respective forms and let us have a look-see.

Type 'frmeasy' is not defined.

Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference.


thank you sooo much

Post the code, please.

very very simple, this is only the intro page

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If nud1.Value = 1 Then

Dim x As New frmeasy
x.Show()
frmmain.Hide()

End If



End Sub

first of all, take out frmmain and change it with MyClass.Hide()

Edit: that is, if the form is named frmmain and not the particular instance otherwise it would be okay. judging from your naming scheme its not a reference though.

gotcha

Still saying frmeasy is not defined though

Is the form actually called frmeasy or formeasy?

Yes, "Type Frmeasy is not defined"

I meant to say Easy, not main before

Zip it up and drop it on some net space.

open a form:

Dim StupidForm As New frmeasy()
StupidForm.ShowDialog()

close a form:

me.close()
