how to load a form from module?

[jernej goricki]

Hi,
Im trying to load a form from sub main in my module like this:

Module MainModule
Sub main()
Dim StartForm As MainFrame
StartForm = New MainFrame()
StartForm.Show()
End Sub
End Module

But the form just blinks for a second and then it dissapears??
Why??

Pass your form to Application.Run like so,

Module MainModule
Sub main()
Dim StartForm As MainFrame
StartForm = New MainFrame()
StartForm.Show()
Application.Run(StartForm)
End Sub
End Module

The problem is that your application doesn't have a message loop --
that's why the form will be closed. Use 'Application.Run(StartForm)'
instead of showing the form.
