Form as control

Hi all

Another childhood doubt

Is VB form a control?

Can we use form as object?

If so how form acts as object?

Am in great doubt that form is a control or not....

I think it's really just a matter of convention as to what they are called. They're all objects, and some of them (window, picture box, frame etc) can contain other objects.

Certainly a VB programmer would not normally refer to a window as a control. On the other hand, someone working in a different language might.
