Forms or pages? What do you mean by a page?

Hey SA, he means a form (Winforms project). And as far as I can tell, I've told him what he needed below.

You are probably looking at MDI forms. If so, see this nearly 10 year old article that may still be quite applicable to MDI with WinForms :

Introduction to MDI Forms with C#[^]

-----------------------------------------

Your 2 top-level forms should both be marked as mdi forms. That allows them to contain child forms.

I guess it should be the same approach. Your 2 top-level forms should both be marked as mdi forms. That allows them to contain child forms.

You can use WPF to navigate between pages.Then you don't need to worry about your problem.WPF has a tool for excellent navigation system.
