One form triggering action on another form
I have an application with two forms.
call them fmMain and fmList
The main form opens another form with a list box in it.
The reason it is on a separate form is that I want this list to be somewhat
transparent so you can see the items under it.
When the user selects an item from the list I want the main form to do
something with that item (display the filename which was selected)
however, even though I get a valid selection nothing on the main form
changes.
I have a procedure called showIt on the main form which is supposed to show
the selected item. It works when the list box is on fmMain but does nothing
when I call it from fmList.
Is there something simple that I am missing?
