How to link Buttons in C++.NET?
Example:
If I want to link "Button1" which is in "Form1" to "Form2", like if you click "Button1" in "Form1", the program will goto "Form2". What source code should I input?

Handle the click event for both buttons and in the event handler call the BringToFront method of the form you want to go to. I don't know your form setup, so I can't offer any more advice than that.

I need to link the "Button1" from "Form1" to "Form2"

Form1:
