I have a form (A) that has a hyperlink to an edit form (B).
I would like to see the changes reflected on form A, after I have edited the records on form B. I have this code in from B,

A.Activate()
A.Show()
A.btn1.PerformClick()

This works, but opens another instance of form A that reflects the changes made.
I guess A.show() opens another instance but
I would like to see the changes in the original form.
 

No, the .Show() method does not open a new instance. If another instance of Form A is opening, you are probably creating a new instance of Form A when Form B opens, rather than passing a reference to the existing Form A.
