Thread: Open a Form within a Form

If you are using C++ and through a button event want to open another form that you have created. How do you code a scenario like this.

My project is called "Fonster".
In this project I have made 2 Forms named "Form1" and "ResultReport".

In Form1 I have made a button. When I press this button I want the Form "ResultReport" to open.

What should I write between the {}:
I am trying something like this but it doesn´t work. It has to be some other things to do also.
Perheps I have to declare the Form ResultReport ? This is the first time I am doing this thing.
When I run the code, the compiler
says that ResultReport must point to a class/struct/union/generic type.

Code:

private: System::Void OpenForm_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) 
		 
{		
   ResultReport->Show();
}

You need to create an instance of the window first, and then show it. This is a golden rule in many languages, including C++.
But this is C++ dot net. You can do the same, with absolutely no relative difference in C#, with the same speed. Using C++ with dot net effectively cripples speed and not many are drawn to C++ dot net topics.
Others sometimes helps on C#, but less so on C++ dot net from what I've seen.

Yes, this is my problem also. What I will write and where to declare the form "ResultReport" because it is my first time I do it.

In the ResultReport.h I have activated this, I believe this is needed:

Code:

private: System::Void ResultReport_Load(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) {
			 }

I dont know if I should write any code here ?

In the Form1.h, I write:

Code:

private: System::Void OpenForm_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) 
		 
{
   Rreport  = new myNamespace.ReportResult();		
   Rreport->Show();
}

The compiler says this:

'Rreport' : undeclared identifier
'myNamespace' : is not a class or namespace name
syntax error : identifier 'ReportResult'
left of '->Show' must point to class/struct/union/generic type
