Your _new() function is the constructor of your class, not of the Form class. 
So when you do hForm = new Form, this constructor is never called.

You should do hForm = new MyClass (if the file you sent is MyClass.class)
and put the form in a non-static variable of MyClass, and the code of Main() 
in _new().
