VB: Forms by Heffy on 05-31-2006 at 01:22 PM

I wish to display a form without it locking up the MSN window, which is what happens when you summon the form with the vbModel suffix.

Anyone know a workaround?

Instead o using form.show, use the ShowWindow API

I'm not sure how to use this API to show a new window :\ The examples only seem to show how to create new objects in a window.

code:
ShowWindow frmMain.hwnd, SW_SHOWNORMAL

Yeah lol, I figured that out shortly after with a quick google. Never knew about the hwnd thing.
