You are missing something absolutely basic and simple. Remember, our access to your hard drive is somewhat limited, so we cannot see how you managed to screw up some simple stuff.

Check your names:
1) Is there a class called Form2 in your application? Are you sure it's not form2 instead? C# is sensitive to the case of names.
2) Is the class in the same namespace? The namespace is at the top of the file, and if you have changed it then you will have to be more explicit in referring to your form (or change the namespace back!)

Make sure you have included the namespace that form2 falls under in form1.
