For me, it would not work due to network and computer restrictions for my school. Just check on that if it that is your situation.

may be you might just need to declare each variable,

if you already have a form running then,

in button_click event add this code:

dim x as new form2
x.show

if you would like to hide your current form and get focus only to the called one,

x.show
me.hide

hope this would help ya...
