Addin - Forms

Hey

 

Whats the general cencus on how forms are managed for an addin? Im having issue getting the right. Originally i declared my form in AddinGlobal as a New form but thats not right as it should be instantiated until needed.

 

Public MyForm As New MyMainForm

So, i changed it to a declare and instantiated in under the button click

'in AddinGlobal
Public MyForm As MyMainForm

'in button click
AddinGlobal.MyForm = New MyMainForm

But im getting issues as i have sime other forms that get added to my main form that require access to properties and functions of the Mainform. however because it hasnt been instantiated, i get a bunch of errors.

 

What are other people doing to load forms in their addins?

 

Thanks
