the following code doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know why my form isn't showing?
Dim pickarea1 As New PickArea
pickarea1.Show()
Dim pickarea1 As New PickArea
pickarea1.Show()

Where do you use the code? If it's inside the sub main, use this
instead:
\\\
Application.Run(New PickArea())
///

Is there long running code in the constructor or in OnLoad? Does the Load
event fire? Does the Activated event fire?

the code is inside the load event of the main form.

Additional information: It is invalid to start a second message loop
on a single thread. Use Application.RunDialog or Form.ShowDialog
instead.
Right, that's why he wrote that you should do this only if your code was in
Sub Main.
What about my questions?

I've already asked how you set some properties but you didn't answer.
