Same Panel in Different Forms?

[Guest]

Hi,
I am developing a Pocket PC Application using VB.Net. I have to use 5 forms
in my application and I wish to display a common Panel, containing a group of
8 buttons, in all the forms.

Is it possible to display the same panel in all the forms? Please reply in
detail. For data entry, is it necessary to include the InputPanel in all the
forms?

Since I am using 8 big buttons displaying only text, I suppose, Toolbar is
not a better option. If it is more convenient, Please clarify.

Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Hari

Create a base Form that derives from Form and has your Panel on it, then
derive all of your app forms from it. It won't work in the designer, but it
will work fine at runtime.
