Hai

May be too simple but I was not able to locate info on this..

My main form will have a button, when I click on it another form should appear. I can do it. I need the parent form there( no .hide) but it should not be 'click-able'. It can be click-able only after the new form is closed. I did the hiding and restoring (an example in forum) on new form close. But I need to do this without hiding. Is it possible?

Please

Thank you
Roy Thomas

Do this:

MyForm form = new MyForm();
form.ShowDialog();

What you need is a modal form and the way to pop a modal form up is to use ShowDialog() instead of just Show().

Hope I helped :)
