CodePudding user response：

There are two answers here Constructing an object and calling a method without assignment in VB.Net that should help.

1. Use With ... End With
2. Use Call

I think you're having an issue because you're trying to use the C# style of creating an instance of an object without assigning it before chaining a method call.

Your code becomes:

Dim name As String = "hello"

If CType(My.Application.OpenForms(name), Faker) Is Nothing Then
    With New Faker() With {.Name = name, .Title = String.Format("{0} - ID:{1}", "hello", Me.ClassClient.ClientAddressID)}

    .Show()
End If

Or

Dim name As String = "hello"

If CType(My.Application.OpenForms(name), Faker) Is Nothing Then
    Call New Faker() With {.Name = name, .Title = String.Format("{0} - ID:{1}", "hello", Me.ClassClient.ClientAddressID)}.Show()

End If
