WinForms does not have a "frame" concept. You can change the parent of a running executable to point to your Window, as you already did. SetWindowLong[^] is used to change the border. The statusbar and toolbars aren't part of that border. The borderstyles can be found on P/Invoke[^]. ..and please don't repost the exact same question. People tend to ignore duplicate posts.

Which part of "don't repost" did you not understand? :mad: You have now posted the same question twice in this forum, and twice in QA. You haven't even had the courtesy to respond to the people who have tried to answer your previous versions of this question.

You can make a windows form view a WPF application inside of it and viceversa. Use the host wpf control to do that. Here this should also help: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms751761.aspx[^]

No you can't. You can, however, open and run an external program from VB.Net.

Actually, you can do that. It's not very nice looking and you don't have control over the application window nor with the application itself. The user can do whatever they want with application, including putting it back to windowed mode and moving it around inside your parent window, even to the point where they can't see the window any more.
