I think I did not say properly.

What I need is:

Base.vb - With the toolbar and a few buttons

Form1.vb - The one, Main.

Form2.vb - When I click a button on a toolbar it opens this. With this open, i wans this to take over anything than is pressed on the toolbar.

I'm starting to get into this MDI stuff, and looked all over for some demo. :(

Errrr ok, well under the click event for the particular toolbar button, to show the Form2.vb

you instantiate a new instance and call Show or ShowDialog (for modal).

Dim frm2 as new Form2

frm.Show()

I have no idea what you mean by "i wans this to take over anything than is pressed on the toolbar."

Either you're too adopted to internet shortform, or you can't express yourself too well, maybe try showing us a screenshot with arrows pointing to what you want things to do.

Above you see the main form (as a mdi container) and it inherit the toolbar buttons from base.

Now I open up Customer (form.show with mdiparent set to main) with the toolbar still there. Can I now click the forward button to change the text of textbox1?

    • Ah so it's not in the .ISO it's self but it changes the definition in the OOBE update during setup?
    • They always have. This just updates what's included out of the box during the initial install.
    • So basically their prebuilding it into the ISOs?
    • Microsoft shares Defender anti-virus update for new Windows 11/10 ISOs by Sayan Sen Following the one for Lumma last month, Microsoft has also published a new Defender update for Windows 11/10/Server installation images this month. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.431.54.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 (Enterprise, Pro, and Home editions), Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.431.54.0 was released this past week adds threat detections for various backdoor exploits, trojans, among others. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.431.155.0 at the time of writing.
