Iterating all open forms

Hi

I have a an application that opens up forms as it runs. So at any time 5
forms may be open for example, each form represents a room.

I need a way to iterate through these forms so that someone doesn't open the
same one twice. Is there a built in way of doing this? c#, .net. So i would
iterate and check the requested room id and say if a form representing that
room is open, just make that one the focus.

Thanks

FormCollection fc = Application.OpenForms;

{
//iterate through
}
