How did that work for you, Dennis98?

eternal_21, that works. &nbsp;Thanks. &nbsp;I did not expect the fix to be so simple because I did not have the problem when running the app as a regular window application (in the order of hiding the 1st form then showing the 2nd form). &nbsp;Any idea why the problem?

No, I have never used the compact framework before. &nbsp;I don't understand why we experienced what we did, but I will investigate it and post back here :).

I am having problems with a multiple form application written in C# for running on .Net Compact Framework. &nbsp; I am using the Form Show() and Hide() methods for switch among different forms. &nbsp;The switch works but the new form is always minimized. &nbsp;I tried it within the WinCE emulator and also on mobile devices. &nbsp;Anybody has some ideas? &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I also tried to adapt my application to run on &nbsp;.Net Framework, i.e., to be a regular window application. &nbsp;The form switching work fine.<br />

Thank you for your help.<br />

Multiple-Form Application Running on .Net Compact Framework (Form Switching Problem)

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
