 system.windows.forms.form.show()

Hi, there,

After I create a form instance: form1 = new System.Windows.Forms.Form(); I
can use form1.Show() to show the form on the screen, but this form won't
receive any events, no reactions to the mouse click.
Is there a way to let the form receive events while using Show() to bring
the form into the front end?

Thanks.

Sounds like you do not have the application object running. The
Application.Run must be called passing a main form to it. Or you must
create an ApplicationContext and pass that and set the main form of the
ApplicationContext at some other time. With out the Application.Run
being called there is no MessageLoop and the events will not fire
because no messages are being processed.

Regards,
