The menu item calls a function. In that function you can do whatever you want, including opening a new form. Dim NewForm as new FormType NewForm.ShowDialog When I create my menu I do something like (this if for a context menu) //// RightClick.MenuItems.Add("&Edit", New EventHandler(AddressOf EditRecord)) RightClick.MenuItems.Add("&New", New EventHandler(AddressOf NewRecord)) RightClick.MenuItems.Add("&Delete", New EventHandler(AddressOf DeleteRecord)) RightClick.MenuItems.Add("Re&conciled", New EventHandler(AddressOf MarkasReconciled)) RightClick.MenuItems.Add("&Refresh", New EventHandler(AddressOf RefreshData)) RightClick.MenuItems.Add("&Highlight", New EventHandler(AddressOf Highlight)) \\\\ You see that I add an EventHandler that points to a function Chris yes i want to know how to open a new form from a menu item.
i have got this so far Private Sub MenuItem6_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MenuItem6.Click Dim FilmsToGet As New Form FilmsToGet.ShowDialog() and want to link menu item 6 to a form called FilmsToGet.vb, but this isnt working and i get this error at the top of the page. D:\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\Film Database\Form1.vb(1): 'Class' statement must end with a matching 'End Class'. can you point me in the right direction please.
