Simple question (I think) {access unloaded forms}

Hey, so I made this procedure which should load all forms there is in the project, it goes like this:

Code:

Sub LoadAll()
Dim Frm As Form
  For Each Frm In Forms
    If (Frm.Tag <> frm_Menu.Tag) Then
      Load Frm
      frm_Menu.ProgressBar.Value = frm_Menu.ProgressBar.Value + 1
    End If
  Next
End Sub

I came into a conclusion that only loaded forms are in this 'Forms' gruop which doesn't really help me cause I want to load them =P

Is there a way to access all forms in the project, run through them all and load them one by one?
I'd appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks,
kedmyster.

Code:

Public Sub LoadAll()
    Load Form1
    Load Form2
    Load Form3
    '...
End Sub

The Forms Collection is used to enumerate Loaded Forms only, unfortunately. I don't know of any way to get a Collection of all Form objects in the Project, loaded or unloaded.

I'm pretty sure that .NET can do what you need (check the the Reflection Classes). Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
