New form opening in same window

[wdlyons]

Hi,
I am trying to create a switchboard to open form in the database I am currently building using push buttons

I have used the following code (which I found on this dusussion board) with success but the forms open in a new window.

Code: Select all

Sub OpenForm(Event As Object) 
   Dim Form As Object 
   Dim FormDoc AS Object 
   Dim FormCollection As Object 
   Dim DBDoc As Object 
   Dim Args(1) As New com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue 
    
   Form=Event.Source.Model.Parent 
   FormCollection=Form.Parent 
   FormDoc=FormCollection.Parent    
   DBDoc=FormDoc.Parent 

   Args(0).Name="ActiveConnection" 
   Args(0).Value=Form.ActiveConnection 
   Args(1).Name="OpenMode" 
   Args(1).Value="open" 

   DBDoc.FormDocuments.loadComponentFromURL("EMPLOYEES","_blank",0,Args()) 
End Sub 

I would like to know how I can make the forms open in the original window used by the switchboard. Is this possible and if so can you please advise what changes I need to make to the macro?

Thanking you in advance

Warwick

I see you haven't had any reply for a month, so I move your topic in the Form section of the forum.
