Hi there,

I have a VB.NET 2010 application consisting of a some projects
in a project map containing the main-project which contains the baseforms and approx.
120 forms build on these baseforms.
Now I need a second app which shall use some of the forms of this project.
Are there possibilities to use these forms also in another project and if so,
what is the best way to do this?

Thanks in advance

Thomas

Hi Ben,

when I put my base-forms in an windows-application I cannot select them when I want to add a new form and chose the option "Inherited Form" ( Ihope this is correct translated as I use a german version of VS.

Then I created a BO-Librarary-project. added a baseform, compiled it to a DLL and now I can choose from this DLL.

Reusing a form from another project in another project works by just adding the form by chosing it in the file-explorer, as long there are references set to the project which can of the type "Windows-Application".

If I haven't missed a thing, this could be the solution.

Best regards

Thomas
