Hello.

I think you're doing this:

Dim temp As New Form1
temp.Show()

while you want to do this:

Form1.Show()

When you open the 2nd form, pass it a reference to the first form:

.Show(Me)  or  .ShowDialog(Me)

Then on the 2nd form when you need to set, change or refresh anything on the first form from the 2nd form use the Owner property:

DirectCast(Me.Owner, Form1).Method/Property

It all depends on what you're doing so I can't make it any more specific right now
