I am having this problem with my combo box.I dont want users to select any of the items F,F9 and 6 with the combo box so i am using this code to check that and if a user selects any of them, it should give him/her a message and then disable the save button unless he/she changes the Letter before it enables it ...........This only works for the disabling but not for enabling even if the text is chaged

If Me.cmbgrade.Text = "F" Or Me.cmbgrade.Text = "F9" Or Me.cmbgrade.Text = "6" Then

			MessageBox.Show("Please You Can Register An Applicant With A Fail Among Six Subjects", "Admission Process", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Stop, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button3)
			If Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
				Me.btnsave.Enabled = False
			Else
				Me.btnsave.Enabled = True

			End If
		End If

I suspect that it is because you are not collecting the result from the MessageBox.Show. This code is cut from the MSDN documentation.

Dim returnValue As DialogResult

returnValue = MessageBox.Show(text, caption, _
	buttons, icon, defaultButton)

then you need

If returnValue = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
...

how do i connect forms through combo box?for example:

i am to log in and im in the admin's account, i have to select through the combox the admins account then log in...

how do i connect it to the admin's form?

You just use the namespace of your other form. For example: AdminsForm.textbox.text. Is that what you are asking?

You will have to determine from the combobox which login is being performed and then inside an if statement, show the appropriate form.
something like

If cboBox.Text = "Admin" then
  dim fAdmin as new frmAdmin
  fadmin.show
else
  dim fUser as new frmUser
  fUser.show
end if

Note: the code above is assuming form names and dis-regarding any other qualifications such as passwords. It is intended to show the basic If statement that I was referring to.
