    Two windows form connection!


    Regards,

    I've been reading some of the old examples about sending informations between
    two forms in VB.Net.
    I have a problem that if I want to show another form, I must create another
    instance of it, but I can't conduct first created instance.
    Is there any way that I can control how many instances of forms I have created,
    or how to change control properties only on first created instance ?

    Thanks,
    Nenad Kermeci

    Those types of problems deal with scope and visiblity. If you need
    access to an object everywhere in your app, then use an app-wide
    variable to reference it.

    You may recall VB6 used a Forms collection that was visible to all
    modules. That may be one solution....
