Link two window forms

[Adrian99420]

Hi,

I am developing a GUI using visual C++ 2005 express edition. I created a window forms (form1.h) with some buttons and codes. Next I added another new window forms (form2.h)with a single button.

I wish to link the form2.h to form1.h with a single button click. I searched and tried many method provided in forum but still not working.

private: System::Void button1_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) {
				 form1.Show();
			 }

I keep getting the error of form1 not identify. Why is it so? Can some1 provide me some help?

Thanks.

Regards,

Adrian

Could be thousands of reasons, but most likely you failed to include the header file in the *.cpp file. Or to declare form1 somewhere.

Hi,

I already link up the two window forms. But the second window form juz appear for less than 1 sec, here is what I wrote:

private: System::Void button1_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) {
                Form2().Show();
                Form2().Activate();
                Form1().Close();
 }

how can I hold it can hide the first window form?

use Form2().ShowDialog(); instead of Form2().Show(); This way it'll stay there.
