Can an application see how many forms are open

[Just Me]

Is there some way I can check to see how many forms an application has open?

I found MdiChildren.Length but need to know the total number of forms and
some are not all MDI children.


Thanks

No. You'll have to maintain a counter yourself.

Not hard, I just hate to have a bunch of code if the system already supplies
a property.

If a form creates another form
gCalculatorForm = New CalculatorForm

does it own it?

I'm wondering about OwnedForms.Length

never mind - I found the doc

If a form creates another form
gCalculatorForm = New CalculatorForm

does it own it?
