VB.NET Tutorial For Beginners - Multiple Forms & Form Interaction (Visual Basic .NET)

[@CarlFritz24]

EXCELLENT ! Man... like I said... you were born to teach ! Perfect ! Thank you. I'll spread out your amazing and instructive videos ! I've seen lots of them (before I got you...) but none like yours !

[@kevins1738]

Excellent! This is somewhat of a "basic" technique but SUPER USEFUL and well done :)

[@RavenSaint1]

This helped me get past the error and Alerts of bad coding between forms. I hope I can modify this to send text for a writeline to a listbox/*.txt on form1 from a textbox on form2.

[@sultanalharby5562]

Thank you very much! it helped me much!

[@louiswilkinson4258]

Your video is very informative - Thank you !!

[@Jon27111807]

I just skimmed through this video and was wondering would this work for a login system where when a user logs in their name will be displayed on the other forms but add that code to a panel or some tool?

[@Jon27111807]

The way you mirrored the text

[@VBToolbox]

+Jonathan Taylor I would just create a Public Shared Class or store the session info as Global variables. Once populated they could be easily called from any form. :-)

[@Jon27111807]

VB Toolbox okay cheers I'll research how to do that :)

[@devindwight4564]

Multi-forms are the bomb-diggity!

[@VBToolbox]

Check out the extension methods! Now, there's some awesomesauce. :-D

[@colinlamont246]

I use continuous form view in my Access projects, what would be the vb.net equivalent to this type of view?

Makasih banyak

[@durrhurr55]

Lol switching from procedural html/js to vb made me have a giant mental breakdown for about a month

[@sandrolanzon]

thanks for the tutorioal it was very helpful, I need to run a sub in form1 whenever I close form2, how can I achieve that?

[@VBToolbox]

Just make sure the Sub in form1 is Public and you should be able to call Form1.YourSubName in the Form2_Close or Closing events. Edit: Oh geez.. just noticed this was 4 years old... ☺ Well... Maybe someone else needs to hear it.

[@michaelgoedeker9697]

Thank You very Much! This helped me a ton!

[@johnisawsomeme]

+VB Toolbox is there a way where i can change the form display without having multiple forms? i want to make a jeopardy game, so whenever i click an answer button, and instead of opening a different form, it just changes its display?

[@dans3593]

You can change the visibility of a button or other element to false like this: Button1.Visibility = False Label1.Visibility = True Then you can put the element that you want to show up directly behind the button. Hope this is what you needed, even though you probably moved on from this question or figured it out by now!

[@profility]

Use a panel, it’s more simple than making each control visible.

[@pconstantinos57]

In VB6 there is an option for the show property called vbModel. vbModal dosen't work in VB2010. Is there a version for .net?

[@VBToolbox]

Hello, Pete. Sorry for the long delay. I'm trying to get caught up. I believe that you will want to use YourForm.ShowDialog() instead of YourForm.Show(). I hope that's right. I'm extremely rusty on VB6.

[@sushilkhatri]

HI there, is it possible to have wire-framing intersection on form, for example when i click on a button on form 1 then it goes to form 2 without having two window open just like on phone device. Thanks for your help

[@VBToolbox]

+sushil khatri You can easily Hide the current form when you switch to the next by doing something like this: In Form1 [Button Click]: Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Form2.Show() Me.Hide() End Sub In Form2 [Button Click]: Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Form1.Show() Me.Hide() End Sub

[@UnknowGuy3mill]

+VB Toolbox Is it another beside just hiding it?

[@LightningStruckElf]

Very helpful but I'd like to know how to use variables declared in one form, in another form. For example if I declared a variable in Form1 and want to use it in both Form1 and Form2.

[@VBToolbox]

Define the variable as Public in the form class (not in a sub). Example: Public MyVariable As Integer = 12 You should be able to find the variable in the other form: Form1.MyVariable

[@LightningStruckElf]

Thanks.

[@sajusathish]

is it possible to create form inside form i don't want a pop up form like a web page in an application

[@VBToolbox]

Greetings, s saju. :-) What you need is MDI forms. I have a tutorial for this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6jbaHqYr5aglc0

[@GLocarso]

Thanks Mate!

[@YellowGamePlay]

hi, i made a form1, but then i decided i wanted a ''menu screen" so i made form2. but how do i make form2 to be the 'main' form. so it launches first

[@VBToolbox]

+YellowGamePlay If you right click on your Project in the Solution Explorer and select Properties, in the Application tab you can set your Startup Form.

[@YellowGamePlay]

VB Toolbox Thanks alot!

[@christine023]

Can i add another visual basic project i have made to my current project?

[@VBToolbox]

You sure can. Just go to File --> Add --> Existing (Or New) Project. This will put both projects in the same solution.

[@christine023]

Thank you! :)

[@VBToolbox]

You're very welcome, Christine. Glad I could help. :-)

[@PapaYosif]

is there a way to make a label with the name of the guy who runs it his pc? like idk MLG-PC

[@VBToolbox]

You can get the current user and the computer name like this: ' get username Label1.Text = Environment.UserName ' get hostname Label2.Text = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName

[@PapaYosif]

VB Toolbox thx bruu

[@profility]

label1.Text = Environment.UserName

[@alpha3twin]

If only Goku knew about this method of changing forms :P

[@lancetv4826]

Thanks, but Me doesn't work anymore. Instead, i use this.
