Create a form with a DataGridView on it and a public variable. Then on Form containing GridViewA, get the selected ID (primary key) value of the row and show second form. Pass that ID into the public variable and then use that to load the GridViewB.

Its not a simple code segment that I can send. You need to do little bits in multiple places.

Use the ShowDialog method instead of Show.

You may want to StartPosition to FormStartPosition.CenterScreen before ShowDialog
