C#

private void btnClose_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{ 
    Form frmSecond = new frmSecond(); 
    frmSecond.Show();  
    frmSecond.Activate();  
    this.Close();
}

This code closes the first form then it enters into Program.cs and then it opens the same form again and not frmSecond. I want to close the first form and then open the second form. Please help.

Thanks!!

If the first form is the startup form, you cannot close it - you can only hide it[^].

You can modify the code in Program.cs to open a second form after the first one closes:

C#

static void Main()
{
	Application.EnableVisualStyles();
	Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
	Application.Run(new Form1());
	Application.Run(new Form2());
}
