Accessing a form by formname?

[Nirious]

I currently am trying to do this:

dim a as form

a = me.form

I get the following error: "Invalid use of property"


Is there a function that lets you select a form using its name.
eg: makeactiveform("NameOftheForm")



Or alternatively if there is a function that gets the activeform. (it's for use in a module)

I you can help me Thank you!

Don't you have to SET a = Me.Form

DoCmd.OpenForm "NameOfTheForm"

That should do the trick...
