Hi Rick

First of all let me thank for you reply in
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb. I put that post here in this forum and
in that forum also because I wanted to do that both in VB 6.0 and VB.Net.
You gave the reply for VB6.0.

DO YOU STILL THINK IT IS MULTI-POST......if yes then who cares.....

I am calling form2 as:

dim frm as new form2()
frm.show()

Where do I write: >>>>>>>>>> form2.DefInstan ce.ShowDialog() , because there
is no definstance method associated with frm.

Thanks.

I have a Windows Form Form1 (not MDI) and when I double-click on the Form, another Form2 will "pop up". How can I pass the text that I typed in Form2 to a textbox in Form1?

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
