How can I identify a vb.net form

  • 772

I would like to know how I can identify an MDI-Child form, and differentiate one from another. I know how to identify it by name, as you can see as follows:

DirectCast(Application.OpenForms.Item(formulario.Name), formulario)

But what happens in this example if the same form obviously has a repeated name, I can differentiate one form from another. I want to know how I can list the forms and go through them, and be able to differentiate between them, through an identification or something, Like an open process has a PID, a form surely has something similar, right? THANK YOU

    If you're talking about the open "Forms" in the application, you can make use of the Application.OpenForms. This is the documentation

    This returns you a FormCollectionwhich, in turn, is a collection of Formwhich I assume you can iterate over and get the identifier (by type).
