  Hello,

  To open a form of another project, you need to reference the project Y in project X. For that, you need to rebuild the entire

  solution to create the exe file of Project Y available in the bin folder. Then you need to add the references of the Project Y exe in the

  Project X.

  We will also have to import the project Y namespace in our project X using Import keyword.

  Imports ProjectY

  Then lets say on a button click, you may use the following code:

  Dim frm As New Project2.Form1

  frm.ShowDialog()

  I hope this will help.
