[ThePentiumGuy]

in vb.NET, im trying to close form1 and open form2

under button1.click
Me.Close

but there is no:
form2.open
or

its odd..
i tried
form2.activeform.show
but it gives an error !?

i added a form by right clicking form1 in the solution explorer and add|add windows form

i looked at other replies and they said,
form2.show
me.hide
but THAT Doesnt work!!

But anyway... now in VB.NET everything is treated as an object, so you need to create an instance of the object first

Dim xx as Form1 = New Form1 or Dim xx as New Form1

Then you can call it

xx.Show()
