I made a litle program which querries a database, filtering through it by means of several comboboxes. As you probably can see; I am a bit newbie in programming. But still I got the first form working and this made me rather proud.

But here comes the problem. I also whish to use the same comboboxes on a second form to use it for different purposes like adding data to the database and so on. So I tried shaddowing but somehow I didn't get the code right because the compiler keeps on telling me I should shadow the original combobox om my parent form.

Can someone give me a hand please?

Public Class FrmInvoer

    Inherits Form1

    Shadows Sub CBO1()
    End Sub
    Private Shadows Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
        ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
        DeelSysteemCbo.Deelsysteem(Me.ComboBox2)
        If ComboBox2.Items.Count = Nothing Then  'foutafhandeling bij leegstand van de querrie
            MsgBox(" Er is nog niets bekend in het systeem. U Mag nu iets invullen! ", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation)

            Exit Sub
        Else
            ComboBox2.SelectedIndex = 0  'opletten: als de querrie leeg is struikelt hij hier over
        End If


    End Sub
    Private Shadows Sub ComboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox2.SelectedIndexChanged
        ComboBox3.Items.Clear()

            MsgBox(" Er zijn nog geen storingen bekend. Maak ons deelachtig van uw griefen ", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation)
            CheckBox1.Checked = True
            Exit Sub
