What does SomeForm.ShowDialog(Me) do is Me is a UserControl

[**Developer**]

What does SomeForm.ShowDialog(Me) do is Me is a UserControl.

The Help describes what happens if Me is a form but I wonder if "Window"
would be a more accurate term then "Form".

That is, will it force SomeForm to be on top of Me if Me is a control placed
on some form?

I experimented a little but didn't resolve the issue.



Thanks

Developer,

Me is the current class.

Because in VBNet a form as you use it instances itself in an inbuild sub
main, is your main form as well a me.

Normally it is something as this
\\\
Public Class whatever
private counter as string
Public sub New()
me.counter +=1
End sub
///

(The equivalent in C type languages is This).

I hope this helps,

Cor

Cor, thanks but I don't understand.
Do you mean when I do
whatever.ShowDialog
VB does what you show below?
What is the counter used for?

Just a sample class to show that it has nothing to do with a form.

I hope this helps,
