How to close a form?

[Kapil Choubisa]

Hi! I am creating a application for Windows Mobile using C#.
I am a new guy in Windows Mobile.
I am facing a problen.
I have 3forms.
on the form 2 I code on click of back menu.

form1 frm=new form1;
form2 frm2=new form;
frm2.close();
frm1.show();
 

the program is running without any error.
The form 1 is also displayed and form 2 get hide.
But when I close the form 1(Mean directly close from the title bar) it again show the form2.
Why don't the form2 is closing permanently with the frm2.close();
method. Is there any othe method for this?
Plz tell me.

Form2 isn't closing because you are making a NEW form2 right before it.
I think you are going to need to read up on Object Oriented Programming (OOP), it will probably help you furthor down the line

I know this but the question is How can I close the form2. without anobject it doesn't have any mathod like close();

You will need to get an object for the form2 that is open.
If you are IN form2 when you want to close it, try calling this.Close()

Yeh it will work while I am in form 2 but I want to close form2 from any other form.
Suppose from form3 on any button's click. How will I do this?

Hmm, you need publicly available references to the object.
How you do it is sort of up to you, you could cycle through Application.OpenForms[] and find the right one to close, or keep a public static object(s) somewhere that have references to them
