\\\
Dim f As New FooForm()
f.ShowDialog()
f.Dispose()
///

Notice that forms shown using 'ShowDialog' should be disposed when they are
not needed any more.

When answering a dotnet question directly, it would be wise to also direct
them to the dotnet newsgroups. Save them time/trouble with their next
questions.

Sorry, I totally missed that this question was directed to a VB classic
group too :-(

Why, that sees the OP from where he gets the answers.

And when you don't want those question in the newsgroup where you are
active, than ask Microsoft to change the name of that newsgroup to make it
more clear to newbies or tell it yourself.

It would be crazy when there is a crosspost between the newsgroups that
somebody active in one tells that his newsgroup is "better".

Just my opinion.

It is expected that people at least read posts in a group
before they post in which case they would soon determine
that this is a VB 'classic' group, unless of course it was
filled with dotnet questions in which case I would
understand the confusion.

Just my opinion.

The other group IS better. If you want want advice on how to
fix a car and you post to a PC group, there MIGHT be someone
who can help you but it's far better to point you to a car
group where EVERYONE can help you.

You must be joking - the name of a NG is set in stone

It is crazy /not/ to send people to the right NG to get their
questions viewed by a lot of people who know about their subject
- rather than just one or two people who are browsing this NG
Just my opinion.

You are in a minority
If this NG becomes full of VB.NET posters then it will be a Tower of
Babel
