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?

What he said. One instance of toolbar shared across all childform. Parent form inherits the toolbar from Base

One of the most interesting features of SMPlayer: it remembers the settings of all files you play.

You can choose the audio track you want to listen. Works with avi and mkv. And of course with DVDs. Seeking by mouse wheel. You can use your mouse wheel to go forward or backward in the video. Video equalizer, allows you to adjust the brightness, contrast, hue, saturation and gamma of the video image. Multiple speed playback. You can play at 2X, 4X... and even in slow motion. Filters. Several filters are available: deinterlace, postprocessing, denoise... and even a karaoke filter (voice removal). Audio and subtitles delay adjustment. Allows you to sync audio and subtitles. Advanced options, such as selecting a demuxer or video & audio codecs. Playlist. Allows you to enqueue several files to be played one after each other. Autorepeat and shuffle supported too. Preferences dialog. You can easily configure every option of SMPlayer by using a nice preferences dialog. Possibility to search automatically for subtitles in opensubtitles.org.

    • Mozilla never had the funding resources to promote their stuff the way Microsoft and Google do. As simple as 1-2-3.
    • ...Microsoft says that Edge is better for your Windows PC than Google's Chrome, as it is a "Microsoft product" that "integrates closely with Microsoft Windows," which helps with "performance benefits."... Yeah, right! Microsoft is still trying hard to convince everyone about everything it makes...
    • This is the curse of Linux on the desktop, the development and maintenance manpower is spread out across countless distributions. The same thing has to be integrated many times.
