Opening and closing Form C#

[DevilInside]

Hi

In WinForms, I want to navigate from a form to another one. The problem is that he doesn't want to close the first Form when I do that.

Code

frmRecieve oForm = new frmRecieve ();
oForm.ShowDialo g();

this.Close();

Anyone who can help? Thanks

If u don't want to close first form(form1) when u navigate to onther form(form2)..
Write down following code.

Form2 frm=new Form2();
frm.showDialog( );

This code work perfectly.Altho ught form2 display on screen but it is modal so u can't navigate to from1 untill u close from2.

Bye...Take Care....Enjoy Coding

[code=cpp]
frmRecieve oForm = new frmRecieve ();
//oForm.ShowDialo g();
//if you change this line to Show(), the forms can be switched back and forth.
oForm.Show();
//this.Close();
//skip the Close() part to not close the current form.
[/code]

Also, if you want to be able to switch back and forth, but not be able to spawn multiple forms, set frmRecieve oForm as a public member of the parent form.
Then, when you want to bring it up,
[code=cpp]
if(oForm == null || oForm.IsDispose d)
{
oForm = new frmRecieve();
oForm.Show();
}
else
oForm.Focus();
[/code]

Oh, I misunderstood that, sorry. I don't know off the top of my head. Let me think about it.

I Finally figured it out

FrmTest oForm = new FrmTest();
oForm.ShowDialo g();

this.Dispose(FA LSE);

Thx anyway
