very simple to reload a form.

use another form, in it have this code execute either by load or another objects method.

form1.close() 'form you want reloaded closes
form1.visible = true  'form you want reloaded opens
form2.close() 'form that did the reload closes

This shouldn't work in VB 2008, because forms are now stored as classes rather than objects, so form1 is the class.

What you would be better off doing, is making a module, and using Sub Main and having a global in the module called form1Instance, code like this:

Visual Basic code:

---

Dim form1Instance As Form1
 
Sub Main
  form1Instance = new Form1
  form1Instance.Show()
End Sub
 
Sub Reset
  form1Instance.close()
  form1Instance.show()
End Sub

---

To Reset the form, call Module1.Reset. At least... it should work.
