vb.net upgrade: I am having problems converting a VB6 application to VB .NET,
particularly the following code causes problems:
Visual Basic Code (VB6 SP4):

Private Sub mnuCOPpppECDC_Csub_Click(Index As Integer)
Select Case Index
Case 0 'New element
Call Screen.ActiveForm.mnuECDC_NewElt_Click
Case 1 'New issue
Call Screen.ActiveForm.mnuECDC_NewIss_Click
Case 2 'New Draft version
Call Screen.ActiveForm.mnuECDC_NewDraft_Click
End Select

End Sub

The conversion on all cases gives the following 'UPGRADE_ISSUE:
Control mnuECDC_NewElt_Click could not be resolved because it was
within the generic namespace ActiveMDIChild. The command is converted
to:
"Call System.Windows.Forms.Form.ActiveForm.mnuECDC_NewElt_Click()"

For MDI children:

\\\
DirectCast(Me.ActiveMdiChild, FooForm).Bla = ...
///

For normal forms:

\\\
DirectCast(Form.ActiveForm, FooForm).Bla = ...
///

.... where 'FooForm' is the type of your form.
