O.P. VB: Forms
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?

RE: VB: Forms
Instead o using form.show, use the ShowWindow API
SoundPacks   -   Scripts   -   Skins

that's not a bug, thats an unexpected feature

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.

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