How to redirect page in windows application?

[JenHu]

Hi all,

I have to ask a stupid question:

In asp.net, I use Response.Redirect ("Main.aspx") to redirect pages,
but what is the syntax of redirect forms in vb.net windows
application?

I have a login page, after clicked "login", it will direct the page to
main.vb, but error says "response is not declared".......
Thanks.

The best route to go with logins is to use your main.vb to instantiate an instance of
"Login" ,
do your validation in the login.vb, then return control to main.vb like so....

'in the load event of Main.vb
dim x as new login
x.showdialog()

<showdialog forces you to be close the form before it returns control>
x.show() will work too, but the form isn't modal

Dim MainForm As New MainForm()

As Herfried and Clamps indicate, switching between WinForms is completely
different than between WebForms. WinForms doesn't use the response object.
Instead, you instantiate an instance of your form, and then use one of the
show methods on it.

You could either have your main form create and show the login form before
the main form shows, or have your login form create and show your main form
in its OK button's event if the login is successful.

Hope that helps,
Brian

JenHu,

You have answers from Clamps and Herfried,

What Herfried does not tell is that he is using a C# methode to instance his
forms.
He has with every project a class "main" where he starts his forms from.

Clamps starts his loginform in the loadevent from his mainform (the same as
I do). In the load event from the mainform is the mainform still not showed.
Therefore the users sees only a login and can not do anything else than
enter the values. When wrong you cancel (me.close in the mainform) and he
sees nothing.

Just as addition I hope this helps?

Huh?! I am definitely /not/ using a C# method.

That module method you use is in my opinion almost the same as in C#

I had fun to write it this way.

Where did I use a module in my sample?!

How would you start your program if you have to do certain things before
showing a form?!
