Hi,

I must say that by reading your post... i dont understand you. So, according to the title, i would suggest to search for 'singleton form'

Hope this helps

Al:

On form with button, paste this code behind the click event.

[code--Form1]

Visible=False

[/code]

Site keeps erroring:

Al:

On form with button, paste this code behind the click event.

[code--Form1]
SetMainForm=Me
Visible=False

[/code]

On 2nd Form, paste this code inside the Formevents.Closing event.

[Code--Form2.Closing]
FRM1=GetMainForm
FRM1.Visible=True
[/code]

Create a module and add the properties to Set and Get the Main Form

[Code--Module1]

Public FRM1 as Form1

Public WriteOnly Property SetForm() As Form1
Set(ByVal Value As Form1)
FRM1 = Value
End Set
End Property

Public ReadOnly Property GetForm() As Form1
Get
Return FRM1
End Get
End Property
[/code]

I hope this helps.
