Finding name of all forms

I want to create a procedure that can loop trough all objects of type form
in an application and print the name property to the debug window.

You'll have to write and maintain your own forms collection.

Try this:

Dim item As Type
For Each item In System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.GetTypes
If GetType(Form).IsAssignableFrom(item) Then
Debug.WriteLine(item.Name)
End If
Next

Oh, I thought about all form /instances/ ;-).

Herfried,

As always you answered directly on the question from the OP, however
probably the answer as Larry did it is the right answer for the problem.
However that is not 100% sure because Tor is asking for Objects and not for
types/classes.
