Adding a Form to a Project

Say that you have a form that was developed in another Visual Studio project. It is possible to move this form and include it into another existing project.


1. Backup all of the files involved. So that if anything goes wrong you can revert to the original files.


2. Copy the .vb and Designer.vb files of the form and paste them into folder of the target project, along side the existing files.


3. Open the target project in Visual Studio.


4. In the Solution Explorer, right-click on the project name and select "Add >> Existing Item".


5. Add buttons so that the user can navigate from form to form.
