if you want to work like in vb you must check public form in project options.

But you need to know that is not a good way of programming..;

2 other ways are possibles :

Pass an object reference to your procedure


FillList(lst as listbox)

	lst.add("foobar")

end


or a public function accessible on your form :

'Gambas form

Public sub ListAdd(sItem as string)
	ListBox1.Add(sItem)
end


in main :

MyForm.ListAdd("FooBar")


A big project like gambas ide don't work with public form, it take a wheel to 
forget that bad use but at term it's better and you can do more powerfull and 
more easy to maintain things.
