Why not the more generic object[] for paramValues?

You could use something like the ChangeType helper from
WilsonORMapper's QueryHelper to
I wrote a class that is basically a wrapper for creating dynamic objects
based on their assembly and type name (as string). I use:
Type.GetType(TypeNameAndAssemblyString).GetContructor(ParamTypes[]).Invo
ke(ParamValueObjects[]);
I have that wrapped in a generic method that:
return T returnObj

When I read your question, AppDomain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap did cross
my mind, but I skipped it as soon as I read you had done similar stuff
in VB6 several years ago... ;)
Ca
Check-out the Activator.CreateInstance methods and
AppDomain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap()
I find AppDomain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap() to be a bit more useful.
If your class will be in the same assembly and namespace then you can do
something like:
Dim o As Form = CType(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.CreateI
Heh. Beat me to it.

Maybe I did not understand your question but cant you do something like
Dim frm
This is done through reflection which gives you the ability to use strings
to reference classes, assemblies etc.
Check out this article by Billy Hollis that does just what (I think) you are
after, right down to the list of forms being in an xml file.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
I think you can use the System.Reflection.
You can associate each form name with the name of the dll, in the XML file,
and then load the dll using System.Reflection and create instances of the form
with the form name from the XML.
I can see this happening but, i am not sure if this is what
Maybe I did not understand your question but cant you do something like
Dim frm
Select Case clickMenu
Case "form1":
frm = new Form1
Case "form2":
frm = new Form2
Case "form3":
frm = new Form3
Case Else
Throw New NotSupportedException( clickMenu)
End Select
frm.Show
