Question From minimized and reopen

[anil3b2]

Hi All,

I have to open different forms thru menu. Whenever i am opening new from the current form should be minimized and new form should be visible and when closing the new form the old one should be viewed again. First level of menu to new form works fine but when i am using form to another form minimize works fine but i need to view in normal mode again fails to view. How can i do this?

Main.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal [Which is not working]

i am using this code to view. To minimize i have used Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized control.

Please suggest me.

Why minimise at all? Why not just display a modal dialogue?

it's a requirement to minimize the current and open the new window and wise verse.

Can you not just do this:

Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized
someDialogue.ShowDialog()
Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal
