Public Sub openRecForm(ByVal frm As Form, ByVal midfrm As Form)
Dim recFld As Form = frm
' recFld = frm
If Not IsNothing(recFld) Then
If Not recFld.IsDisposed Then
recFld.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal
recFld.BringToFront()
Else
recFld = New Form
recFld = frm
recFld.MdiParent = midfrm
recFld.Show()
End If
Else
recFld = New Form
recFld = frm
recFld.MdiParent = midfrm
recFld.Show()
End If
