Hi,

What do u exactly want do u want to show any message as a pop-up in vb.net or do you want to show entire other form as pop-up???

if u want message as a pop-up then you can write

MsgBox("<>", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "<>")

OR

MessageBox.Show("<>", "<>", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1, MessageBoxOptions.DefaultDesktopOnly, False)

if u want to open new form as pop-up then

Dim Obj as new Form1
Obj.Show()

or

Dim Obj As New Form1
Obj.ShowDialog()

Regards,
Vidyadhar

Hi, i think i understand your requirement. Is it you want you click the button, and then the current form will be close, and the new form will pop up?

if this is your requirement, then the solution will as the following

when u click the button, then the form1 will close while the form2 will be pop up.
Me.Hide()
Form2.Show()

Hope this can help u..

Dim obj As New Form1

Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

obj.Show()

End Sub

Hi rohitgeek! Please start a new thread for your question. You're not answering or solving the original question about pop-up windows. You'll get answers to your question when everybody sees what you are asking :)

And gomathinayagam could do the same.

em...if your first form is startup form and you want call the new form and close the startup form, i think the better way is setup the solution/project properties at "Shutdown mode" choose "when last form-closes". If you choose this you can dispose the object (startup form) and the second form is not close.
