How to add subform (like in Access) in Visual Basic?

[gundie]

I have a main form, and I want to embed a subform (similar to Access) into this main form. I want to display the corresponding subform base on a combo box selection on the main form. How can I do that?

Depends on if you want to use Form1 as the MDI Parent or not.

If not, like this:

Dim F as New Form2
F.Show

If so, like this:

Dim F as New Form2
F.MdiParent = Me ''or whatever MDI is your Parent Form
F.Show()

I hope this helps

There are no subforms in vb.net(except third party) you can use DataGridView, DataGrid or ListView for that purpose.
Little complicated...

Google for "Master detail vb.net".. plenty of examples.

You can add a panel to your form. Then in code create the form, making sure to set TopLevel = False, then just add it to the form. If you are going to be working back and forth, then you need to create the form as a globabl variable.
