    Application start-up events without start-up form

    Hi

    My app needs to use the MyApplication_S tartup and
    MyApplication_S tartupNextInsta nce events but do not need the start-up form.
    How can I get rid of the start-up form as I can't select the Sub Main when
    application framework is enabled.?

    Thanks

    Regards

      You can't... You have to use a form as your startup object when you
      use the framework.

          What is it you are trying to do ?
          If you want to change the startup from at runtime you can do that in the
          Startup event by setting Me.MainForm to the appropriate form.

              Re: Application start-up events without start-up form

              Hi

              I need the vb.net app to work in background (so to speak) as it will get an
              event by an external app periodically by it (vb.net app) being called with a
              parameter by the external app. I am using MyApplication_S tartup and
              MyApplication_S tartupNextInsta nce events to pick up that command line
              parameter but as I need to do this in background I do not need to show the
              form.

              Should I use an app type other than Winform to accomplish this?

              Thanks

              Regards

                  Yeh, I'd say just use a Sub Main. Uncheck the "Enable Application Framework"
                  box, then select a Sub Main in the startup object drop down.
