Open Form1 as new instance after successful operations on Fo

Devi

I am having two forms as Form1 and Form2 on Form1 button click I am opening the form2 as follows

private Form2 form2; this.Hide(); form2.ShowDialog(); this.Show();

I have a back button and submit button on Form2 when I click on Back this is how I am showing Form1

this.Hide(); this.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;

But when I submit the form I need to load the Form1 with new instance, this is what I tried but Form1 is showing multiple times

if (DialogResult.OK == MessageBox.Show("Installation was done", "Success", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)) { Form f1 = new Form ();    f1.Show(); this.Close(); }

Can some one help me

Try the following codeon your Form1 button click event write the following
privatevoidbutton1_Click(objectsender,EventArgse)
{
form2.ShowData(textBox1.Text);
form2.ShowDialog(this);
}
In your Form2 submit click have the following code
privatevoidbutton2_Click(objectsender,EventArgse)
{
this.Owner.Hide();
this.Owner=newForm1(this);
this.Hide();
this.Owner.Show();
}

Hi.
Goto Your Form2.cs and change the code like this,
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Form1 f2 = new Form1(this);
this.Hide();
f2.ShowDialog();
this.Show();
}
Thanks.
