Open a Form in another form - GHD124 - Aug 5, 2014
This is sort of a tutorial and help at the same time.
i am using this code to open Form 2 in Form 1:
Code
Dim newform As New Form2
newform.TopLevel = False
Me.Controls.Add(newform)
newform.Show()![[Image: pqxH0Fu.png]](https://i.imgur.com/pqxH0Fu.png)
but is there a way to make this code with, lets say opening mozilla or something?

Yes, it is called an addon lol. You can't do it with your logic though.

I don't know what you mean by "opening mozilla". Do you mean if you click a button on your form, Firefox opens? If so then you would use the Process.Start() method.
By the way, this is not by any means a tutorial.

Yes but all that code is doing is showing Form2. In regards to Firefox, are you wanting to open the browser when you click a button, or are you talking about embedding the browser into your form?
Sorry but you need to clarify what you're wanting a little better.

I would say it's quite clear it's the latter.

Why don't people only screenshot the relevant things anymore. So annoying.

Welcome to the .Net Section 2014, where we screenshot everything except for relevant things.

Use the SetParent function.
PHP Code
<?php
SetParent(MyForm.Handle, FireFoxFormHandle);
