I would like to make educational software for my own classroom use. I've have some VB experience but it has always been with one form. Let me give you and example. I want to make a program that will introduce the students to the three classes of levers. I would like to have one window showing an example and explanation of a class one lever. When the student using the program presses the command button the window would now move on to class 2 levers, etc.

Now when making such a program, do I just "hide" my class 1 lever information and have my class 2 levers appear? Or, do I have the command button shut off form 1 and open form 2. I tried the latter method which works but doesn't acts like a real program as it gives access to the first form with a tab at the bottom of the computer screen. Any ideas how you would do this?

Thanks,

I don't know how that's "not acting like a real program". Anything that works is a real program.

If you use Form1.Hide then it won't appear in the task bar.
