The general answer is simple. Store that flag somewhere. Can be a registry setting, ini file, database, whatever suits your needs.

You don't want to determine if the "register" form has been displayed - you want to know if the user has registered (or if he wants to register again, as a different user). Think about it: if you only allow him to display it once, what happens if he closes it without completing registration? He can't register any more!

So provide a link from your Login screen to the register screen (just as most websites do) and let him decide if he wants to use his existing log on (from a different PC perhaps, or the current one before he reformatted it) or set up a new registration.
