    I was made a program in visual basic i saved it and when i opened it again instead of just opening the program (which i wanted it to do) it opened visual basic itself and the program i made

    I was wondering is there any way around this and if so how?

    are you saying you want it to run the program when you open it?

    Not very clear what's causing this... but anyway:
    Are you sure you're not double-clicking the solution file or project file? In most situations, there's a subfolder called debug.... and exe is in there... double clicking it should never launch VS. Failing that, in the Build options set the output to Release Mode. That will put the exe in a release folder. Double clicking that should certainly just launch your program

    is this VB.Net or Visual Basic (5 or 6)
    either way you need to compile the program to an EXE
    and click on the exe

    to run it
