that's an Object Oriented Programming beginners issue. You need a C# book for beginners. Trying to learn programming fundamentals over the internet forums is not an efficient means of doing that.

Well if I were to decide to insult you in this context it would be because I do know how to do that and have known since about 1992. So what's your reason?

Do you see that funky shaped icon beside his name? That means he does know - he's just not sure you're capable of this yourself.

well the fuction he is trying to tell me to use is Visual basic function try it your self works fine in VB but not C++ or C# which i was asking about

I hate to tell you this, but it's a method on the Form class, and does work in C#. I've used it often enough to recognise it.

Wrong. I have a C# Windows Forms application that I executed that code in before I posted it to you.
I am trying hard not to insult you ( no comments needed from you Pete  ), I really mean it sincerely when I suggest you need to use a beginners book. There is nothing wrong with that, I still have shelves of them at home from when I started and I still have to look things up in them almost 20 years later!  It's a never ending experience learning about development but we really need a foundation to work from.

The Show method works just fine in both C++.NET and C#. I use it every day

and prepare for a fearless riposte.

Funky as in classy shaped icon. No insults there - just 3 MVPs chewing the fat.

Which leads to another question: did/does CP ever explain what MVP stands for?
it could be many things, Most Vertical Primate being one of them.

I don't know about yours but my award stands for Most Valuable Puke. I wanted Most Valuable Cookie Tosser but Chris said John Simmons already had that.

it seems to me we need another editable column in the database, so we can personalize this.
And in a couple of weeks the friday quiz question: given 40 MVP names and 40 titles,
who is who?

I'd like to think it's Most Valuable Professional, but in my case it could be Madly Vocal Pessimist.

I didn't see you as a pessimist

If the award was for that, it would be much easier for me to win one. In fact I would probably have top honors.

No. He is telling you to get a book and learn.
