"specific page" - you mean specific form in your project?

Create an object of the 'specific' form and call the Show method. Simple!

Hi,

You need to handle click event of Menustrip and you can open a form from there.

Solution 2

lets assume the Form you want to go to named Form2 so in the event you want to call the other form from type this code

Form2 f2 = new Form2();
f2.Show();

or

Form2 f2 = new Form2();
f2.ShowDialog();  // to use the DialogResult in your Form2

or

Form2 f2 = new Form2();
f2.ShowDialog(this); // to use the Dialog Result in your Form2 and make the first Form nonuseble till Form2 closed

or

Form2 f2 = new Form2();
if (f2.ShowDialog()==DialogResult.Cancel)
return;
DoSomethingHere();

Solution 3

Looks like you have a web dev background. I would recommend that you learn the basics of desktop UI development before venturing further.

Alternatively you could look at WPF/Xaml if you really want the browser application look and feel.
