 Can I dynamically(runtime) create a form/control? You can create forms and controls at runtime, but they must be defined at
design time. Say you had a form that acted as a text editor. You can
create any number of these forms at run time for an MDI text editor for
example. Same with controls. You can create a single control and give it
an index and create many more to create a control array at runtime. You
cannot simply create a form or control out of nothing. Besides, there would
be no code behind it and you can't add code at runtime...
Try this:
' Create a form at design time called "Form1"
Public frmMain As Form ' OR: Public frmMain As Form1
Private Sub Main()
' Create a new Form1 and show it:
Set frmMain = New Form1
frmMain.Show
' .........
' Destroy the Form1 pointed to by frmMain:
Set frmMain = Nothing
End Sub

Can I dynamically(runtime) create a form/control? Glenn,
VB6 introduced the ability to create controls 'out of thin air' at runtime.
See dynamic control creation in the What's new section of MSDN for VB6.
You can create forms, too, at runtime--even if they didn't exist at
designtime--but you have to use native Windows functionality. See DevX (?)
for an example.

Can I dynamically(runtime) create a form/control? Hi,
Can I dynamically(at runtime) create a form or a control?
That is not in the design mode.
Also can I at runtime destroy a form or a control?
Not just making it Enabled:False, Visible:False, etc.
thanks

Can you please give me some code to demostrate creating control array
at runtime, thanks.

Is this true? - I haven't found anything similar in the (german)
documentation, but I'm very interested in this subject. Could
you give me any more hints what to search for in the MSDN?
Thanks in advance

I don't know if the VB Help index translates directly auf Deutsch - in
my English version, I find useful info in index under the topic:
Controls collection
or: Add method (controls collection)
As with some VB Help doc's, this one doesn't tell you everything, but
enough to get you started.
