Startup form

When I run a VB-app it starts by running the initial form. How does it
know which form is the initial? Can it be changed - and if so, where?

Found the answer myself: *.vbproj file. I knew it was to be found from
the Project->Properties, but I was looking for the file.

Select the project in the solution explorer, choose "Properties" from its
context menu. A dialog appears. There you can set the startup form in
"General Properties" -> "General" -> "Startup object" (translated from the
German version of VS.NET).
