Done off the top of my head, but this should work.

1) Create the form you want to load into a  form and call it - lets say MyForm

2) Create another form say FMain and in the IDE put a container on it, say a 
VBox, call it Vbox_For_MyForm or whatever

At the top of FMain in the declarations part of the code:

Dim Form2Insert as MyForm

Type in this:

public  Sub Form_Open()
        Form2Insert = New MyForm(Vbox_For_MyForm)

end

This should embed ok, if not I'll write you an example and mail it to you.

Regards

Richard
