Okay Forget it found the solution on the net otherwhere,

if somone is interested here it is.

        Public Shared Sub CreateDockableWindow(app As Inventor.Application)

            Dim uiMan As UserInterfaceManager = app.UserInterfaceManager

            Dim dockableWin As Inventor.DockableWindow = uiMan.DockableWindows.Add(Guid.NewGuid().ToString(), "KB_DockableWindow1", "KB - DockableWindow #1")

            dockableWin.AddChild(CreateChildDialog())

            dockableWin.DisabledDockingStates = Inventor.DockingStateEnum.kDockTop + Inventor.DockingStateEnum.kDockBottom

            dockableWin.DockingState = DockingStateEnum.kDockLeft

            dockableWin.ShowVisibilityCheckBox = True

            dockableWin.ShowTitleBar = True

            dockableWin.SetMinimumSize(100, 100)

            dockableWin.Visible = True

        End Sub

        Public Shared Function CreateChildDialog() As Long

            Dim dc As New Form1()

            '   dc.Text = "Child Dialog"

            '   dc.HelpButton = InlineAssignHelper(dc.MinimizeBox, InlineAssignHelper(dc.MaximizeBox, False))
            '   dc.ShowIcon = InlineAssignHelper(dc.ShowInTaskbar, False)
            '    dc.TopMost = True

            '    dc.Height = 100
            '    dc.Width = 300
            '   dc.MinimumSize = New Size(dc.Width, dc.Height)

            ' Dim margin As Integer = 5
            'Dim size As Size = dc.ClientSize

            'Dim tb As New System.Windows.Forms.TextBox()
            '   tb.TextAlign = HorizontalAlignment.Right
            '    tb.Height = 20
            '  tb.Width = size.Width - 2 * margin
            '   tb.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(margin, margin)
            '   tb.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Top Or AnchorStyles.Left Or AnchorStyles.Right
            '   dc.Controls.Add(tb)

            dc.Show()

            Return dc.Handle.ToInt64()

        End Function
