Okay. I have a weird question relating to windows program delelopment.
I'm working on a program, and I'd like a window to come up, that would have
a user fill in data. Right now, I'm able to do this on a seperate form.
(Thanks newsgroups!) When this seperate form opens, it creates another
window, and thus another item on the taskbar. I'm looking for a suggestion on
how to make this form thingy come up looking more seemless. Hiding and
showing the various forms is one option. Is there a better way?

Thanks everyone!
 
Well. I didn't realize all I needed to do is set "ShowInTaskBar = False"

That'll probably solve my problem.

Sometimes even when you figure it out, you have to post it to the newsgroups
before you figure out for yourself.
 
You may want to do a "form.ShowDialog(this)" as well... This will make sure
the window doesnt get "lost" somewhere behind other forms... If you are doing
a show, I recommend setting the window to be the top window.
