Question

I am trying to click on a button in a form, by doing so it will hide the existing form and show the new one, although I have had problems, and also problems with the forms being “generated” in different locations on the screen!

My code is as follows:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    (new Form3()).Show();
    (new Form2()).Hide();
}

This code shows the new form ok, but form2 does not hide

Answer 1

You’re creating a new instance of Form2 and hiding THAT one. I’m guessing you’re looking for this:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    (new Form3()).Show();
    this.Hide();
}
