Clicking buttons and opening forms

[RealRookie]

Hi.

How about helping a novice...

In c# I have Form1 and Form2.
On Form1 I also have one button. When I click that button, I´d like it to open Form2 - now how do I get about that...As I say....im REAL new to this..

So far...all this has been, is drag and drop i VS, not much code yet

In the click event of that button

Form frm2=new Form2();
frm2.ActiveForm.show();

[RealRookie]

I get this Error

'System.Windows.Forms.Form' does not contain a definition for 'ActiveForm'

This is what I have

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
 
namespace DeviceApplication1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
 
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Form frm2 = new Form2();
            frm2.ActiveForm.show();
 
        }
    }
}
