My application has 3 forms(form1,form2,form3). Form1 is parent container of form2 and when form2 calls form3 appears out side the form1. And my question how can i make form3 appear within form1??

CodeSnippet:

C#

//FORM1 code
FORM2 f2=new FORM2();
f2.Mdiparent=this;               ///Call a instance of Form2
f2.Show();

//FORM2 code
FORM3 f3=new FORM3();                 ///Call a instance of Form3
if(f3.Showdialog()==Dialogresult.OK)
{
}

The best way is to have form2 ask form1 to do it - that way it doesn't need to know any more about it. See here: Transferring information between two forms, Part 3: Child to Child[^] - it's not directly relevant, since it assumes that the form2 and form3 exist already, but it shows the general principle.
