simple question about forms

Hello, I'm new to programming C# in visual studio. I have a form A and
when button B is pushed it calls form C. Is there a simple way to
disable form A until form C is exited. I know it can't be hard because
I see it all the time in apps but for the life of me, I cannot find
the answer on the web.

Thanks

Call the ShowModalDialog method, rather than the Show method.

I had the same problem once. Fixed it using the same solution.
