Question

Is there a way tha a form returns a value? something like …

sub main() 

   Dim task as new TaskForm()
   dim res as integer=0
   res = task.opendialog()

end sub

Answer 1

If you use ShowDialog, you can set the form’s DialogResult property to a value. Keep in mind that the form can’t return arbitrary results this way, only the values of the DialogResult enumeration.

Otherwise, you’d have to set the form’s Tag Property and manually retrieve it after the form is closed, but before you discard the reference to it.
