Don't know that you can do that. Might be easier to create dual instances in each form and just bring them visible when you need to.

you need global access to that control. back in the VB6 days you would add a module to the project and store the button/image/widget there. and that way your forms each had access

instead, just create a new module with a public sub containing the code for the button to preform when it's clicked. and then have two buttons, one on each form. and when those buttons are clicked you will call the sub in the module.

or make a button activex.

or make two buttons and make the one call the function of the other.

Matthew(22:36-40)"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
