Hi all,
I somehow seem to hit the roof somewhere.
I have an MDI displaying several forms.
All forms (including the MDI) inherit from a form that has some user defined control that accepts text and sets some statusses.
Just the MDI is shown at startup, the others are fired from a MainMenu.
But maybe this is all irrelevant to the problem I have :
After adding several forms to the application, things that used to work, no longer do, even if this functionality is on the first window opened.
This failing functionality can be :
- show a file using web browser functionality :
AxWebBrowser1.Navigate(mURL)
- display a new form :
Dim newform As New frmBrowser
newform.MdiParent = Me
newform.Show()
- or even simple dialogs :
1. MsgBox("File opened by: " & oDocument.Application.Name)
2. If (OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK) Then ...
Just as if the presence of all these forms that could be shown, limits the actual possiblity of showing them ?
I sure hope somebody can give me a hint of what to check or how to debug.
I gather from info found that it could have something to do with member objects of the forms (or the user control) not being initialised properly ?
Infinite thanks in advance for any help you can offer !
My software delivery deadline is approaching fast ...
