Linking to Forms using a CommandButton
hi guys how would I link from one form to another.

For example if i had Form1 as a contents page and I wanted to link from Form 1 to Form 2 using a CommandButton. How could I do that?

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean by "link to" and what version of VB are you working with?

In your button click you can do something like
Code:

sub Command1_Click()
  dim f1 as myOtherForm
  set f1 = new myOtherForm
  f1.visible = true
end sub


Obviously there is some more housekeeping you'd have to do for real code.

Wouldn't it be easier to just do:

Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim f1 As New myOtherForm
f1.Visible = True
End Sub


Or if you don't want it to allow a new instance of that form to popup, you could just use:

Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
myOtherForm.Show
End Sub

Force of habit, I don't like using New in dim statements.
