    Display Form from string

    I want to be able to pass a formname as a string and have the form displayed.
    I have read about using the Type and Assembly or Activator .CreateInstance
    and have tried several things but none of it works. Here is my situation. I
    have a dll called BaseClasses and it has a class called BaseForm. I then
    have another dll called Test and a 3rd dll called Insured. When a button is
    pressed I want to have a method in the Test.dll call a method in the BaseForm
    that accepts the formname and then the BaseForm will display the form passed
    in, such as Insured.Insured Search (in Insured.dll). I try to get the
    assembly, but it never sees the Insured.Insured Search. The Insured.dll and
    Test.dll have reference to BaseClasses but BaseClasses doesn't reference the
    other dlls. Here is some code:

    BaseClasses.Nav igate(String formName)
    {
    Assembly aCurAssembly = Assembly.GetExe cutingAssembly( );
    CybeReBaseForm oform = aCurAssembly.Cr eateInstance(sF ormName,true);
    }

    Test.cmd_click( )
    {
    base.Navigate(" Insured.Insured Search");
    }

    Let me know if this doesn't make sense or if more info is needed.
