Bizar problem with a form (different instances act like one!)

Hi all,

I have got a really weird problem:
- A normal VB.net forms application
- One MDI child form with a bunch of controls (tabs, radiobuttons, combo's,
etc.)
- The form is called from several procedures as kind of a dialog
- To my knowledge we haven't done anything in the disigner / code which can
be described as unusual

When de form is called multiple time they seem te listen to each others
events! So when I change a combo, the combobox will change on all forms ?!
All instances are created through a new / contructor and to my knowledge no
variables / controls are declared as static.

Does anyone have ever seen this or made this kind of functionality on
purpose?

I better hope it isn't a little switch in de IDE we turned on by accident.

Hope you can help,

Best regards,

Joost van den Berg

Can you list the code here that you use to instantiate the form?

Location A:

Private Sub ToolStripButtonTemp_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object,
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButtonTemp.Click

Dim t As New MRC.Forms.FormProbeEdit
t.MdiParent = Me
t.FormMain = Me
t.Show()

End Sub

Location B:

'Create a new form
CurrentEditForm = New MRC.Forms.FormProbeEdit

With CurrentEditForm

'Set owner
.MdiParent = Me.FormMain
.FormMain = Me.FormMain

'Show form
Call .Show()

'Set probe
.Probe = CurrentProbe

End With

As you can see, they both call the constructor.
