Paul,

Good to see ya on line. Give me a call sometime.

The main thing you must do is add a reference to the namespace of the other projects to the menu code.

Imports Somepoject.whatever
or
In C#
Using Somepoject.whatever

Then you should be able to just add a menu pad and handler code with the basic call to the form.

Dim Form1 As New NameofaForm
Form1.MdiParent = Me
Form1.Show()

Optionally you could use the following code without the Imports above by using a full reference to the form.

In VB
Dim Form1 As New Somepoject.whatever.NameofaForm
Form1.MdiParent = Me
Form1.Show()

I'm a green rookie with .NET but I hope this will help.
