windowstate maximized : form_activate executes before form_load
-
Hello every one, I am having a VB.net 2005 application. Earlier we had designed the application with a fixed window size, now we had implemented TableLayoutPanel in it to make it full screen. After the implementation I made Windowstate as maximized for the forms. Now I am encountering some thing strange, On formName.show first the form1_activate is executed instead of form1_load. (Openinf form1 from form) Once I reverted back “Windowstate to Normal” the execution sequence comes back to normal (Lode and then execute) Can any one plz help me out with it... Regards Nishkarsh

You can't change the firing order of events, so the only thing you can do is change your code to handle both cases. I have to question what code you're putting into the Activate event handler, since this event fires every time the form gets focus for any reason, not just when the form first appears. Normally, you'd use this event to update the forms controls with new data when the form regains the focus.

2006, 2007, 2008Thanks Dave for the input. My exact question is that after making The window state to full screen in designer, why form activate is executed before load. I had done a way around now that i change the window state to full screen at the end of form load. But want to know why way it happening Regards Nishkarsh
