akumarp2p · January 11th, 2007, 10:06 AM

Hi
I have one mdiForm and one ChildForm. mdiForm has one menu named mnu1. When I click on mnu1 ChildForm Opens. But when i again click on mnu1 next ChildForm also Opens. But I want when One Form was opened then 2nd Same Form doesn't allow to open().
Give me some Idea.
How to restrict a Form to Open when it is already Opened.

Thanks and Regards

hi

in the main form class ((Form1)) declare

public static bool exist =false;

on menu click event type the following code

if(!exist)
{

Form2 newFrm =new Form2();
newFrm.ShowDialog();
exist=True;

}

on Form2 on FormClosing Event type the following code

Form1.exist=false;
