| | Hi all, I am new to .NET and SF, I have a concern about what is the proper or the SF way to call/open forms within the application. I found the code below in the forums and I wonder if there is such a method in any of the SF classes to re-used, instead of having to create one manually?: '-- Establish LocalsDim loForm As System.Windows.Forms.Form'-- Create the form loForm = CType(Activator.CreateInstance(FormType), System.Windows.Forms.Form)'-- Set the MDI loForm.MdiParent = Me'-- Show the Form loForm.Show() Also, how to handle only one instance of the form to be opened, ex: I don't want the users to open the forms more than once. P.S. I am using an MDI form based on SF StandardForm class.

| | No, we don't have any reusable methods for opening forms like that. Here's a link to some more information: http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost9345.aspx Basically, you cycle through the MdiChildren on the main MDI form, and if one of those forms is the desired type, then you activate it; otherwise, you create a new form of the desired type and show it.
