Hi I am working on some window based application(C#) its a Mobile device application.I have two forms like Form1() and Form2() and Form1() has one method

C#

public void Test()
       {
           MessageBox.Show("Hello Parent");
       }

I want to call this method from Form2() but without creating any object of Form1(). How can I do that.

Thanks in Advance.

You can't, not like that. That method needs a class instance. You could make it static:

C#

public static void Test()
   {
   MessageBox.Show("Hello Parent");
   }

But then you can't access any of the form fields, properties or other non-static methods from within the Test method.
