closing both forms

[itaye666]

im trying to open one form while closing another form with a link label.
what im using is this:
private void linkLabel1_Link Clicked(object sender, LinkLabelLinkCl ickedEventArgs e)
{
Form2 frm = new Form2();
frm.Show();
this.close();
}
but it closes both forms and exiting the debug

plz help me! T_T

If you exit the first form, the second one will go out of scope and be closed too.
Try re-thinking the structure of your program.
Or consider just hiding (and then later showing if need be) the first form

[mzmishra]

Try something like this.
private void CloseAndOpen(Fo rm currentForm, Form openForm)

{



openForm.Show() ;

currentForm.Hid e();

}





private void linkLabel1_Link Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

CloseAndOpen(th is, new Form3());

}
