How to open the child form inside the parent form in windows form
Experts
My question is that when I click a menu item then a new window opens by virtue of the following code
Form2 f2=new Form2();
f2.show();
Actually this opens the new and separate form.
I want the form should be inside the parent form .That is the new form should not open separately rather it should appear that the new form is embedded in the main parent form. Please see the image attached .
I do not know the exactly technical term to describe what I want .
so please see the image to understand my query.
Provide me some tutorials or urls or code to implement the actions of the image.
Thanking you

Experts if possible please provide me some more urls on the custom control.
Thanks for the suggestions

What happens is on that "panel" you create and add this custom control during runtime.
Basically its treated very similar to a form (design) but its treated like a control (button, text box, etc etc) but lacks the title bar and other independent features that a form has.
