following code is within Form1
[CODE=]Form2 frm2 = new Form2();
frm2.Owner = this;
frm2.Show();[/CODE]
following code goes into Form2 (Form_Load event)
[CODE=]this.Owner.Clos e();
//this.Owner.Hide ();[/CODE]
you will realise why i have commented the Line which Hides the owner form

//this.Owner.Hide ();[/CODE]

What do you not understand in what i sent?

the code has to be put in 2 different forms
the firt sniippet is where you call form2

and the second snippet is inside form2 when you want to close the parent form

Well, how about copying the text , pasting it in a notepad and then trying?

i will remove the cpp tag in it so that it appears in better contrast for you
