Visual Studio C# 2010 adding/editing new additional forms to a program

Question

So I am new to actually building GUI and I am creating a project where when you click on one button you open a new form. With this new form I want to be able to add and edit things to it.

In my solution explorer it is only showing the first form that I originally create, not the second one. I went online and used one of those little microsoft blurbs about creating a new form when a button is clicked, and I am a little lost from there.

My program is going to have multiple buttons that you click and they open certain forms. I understand that I have the button_click set to create a new form. I now want to know how to edit these forms that are created.

I tried refreshing my solution explorer and it wouldn't show my newly created design. (I thought that could be one of my possible errors, haha) Could someone please let me know what I should be doing?

Answer 1

First add a new form. Right click on your project (my project is called Test) and give it a name (I called it TestForm):

Then, add the following code to your button:

TestForm MyForm = new TestForm();
MyForm.Show();
