VB Forum / Controls / July 2008How to make a application run inside a form.
I need some suggestion on how to run a non Microsoft App in a VB form? I'm trying to combine couple applications to run in one single form window so that it looks like one program. In the form there will be button to choose the view of different application. Can someone provide help or suggestions? Thanks in advance! > I need some suggestion on how to run a non Microsoft App in a VB form?

Please provide some more information about what you're actually trying to achieve. Sinna What I'm trying to do is for example have a symantec PC anywhere, Firefox, Abobe PDF all run inside one vb form. Then I will make button or tab so that I can switch the view of each program kind of like how the firefox tab works with different web site. The problem I'm running into is how to lock all those programs into the form so that it looks like only one window. >> I need some suggestion on how to run a non Microsoft App in a VB form?

In fact you're trying to let the other Windows applications act as a child of your application. Sinna Sinna Thanks! that was exactly what I was looking for and it worked great! >> What I'm trying to do is for example have a symantec PC anywhere, Firefox, >> Abobe PDF all run inside one vb form.
