    <p>Warning! This is noob question probably! Sorry in advance.</p> <p>I'm learning C# (using MS Studio 2013) and I'm having hard time creating some kind of decent navigation in simple desktop program.</p> <p>Basically what I want is this: MenuStrip with options like "calculate something", "Calculate somethingelse"... and other (that I can easily add later - like dynamic menu on a webpage). If you click first option inside the Form connected with the StripMenu you will get some controls that allows you to do something(like inputs on a webpage). If you click the second all these options will disappear and you will get a fresh set of controls where you can do somethingelse (simply another webpage to play with).</p> <p>What is the best way to do it (I find it amazing hard to find out :) ). Only way I figured out (more from experience in js then tutorials) is to use show/hide like in javascript/html.</p> <pre><code>ExamplePanel.Visible = false; ExampleOtherPanel.Visible = true; </code></pre> <p>But this doesn't seem right - I think it would be impossible to manage in bigger program (not only in code, but visual designer too - you can only fit that much Panels inside Form).</p> <p>Any advice? Or at least a link to material where I can find out?</p> <p>EDIT: Finaly I gave up and used multiple Forms as sugested in answer.</p> <pre><code> private void MenuStripExample_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e) { SomeForm SomeForm = new SomeForm(); this.Hide(); //Hide the main form before showing the secondary SomeForm.ShowDialog(); //Show secondary form, code execution stop until SomeForm is closed //this.Show(); //You may uncomment this if you want to have the previous Form to get back after you close new one } </code></pre>

    1. COThis is one of the beauties of visual designing. Try it see if it works. If you don't like it delete it and start over. Keep doing this until you get want you want, then start coding the event handlers for the controls. If everything won't fit on one toolstrip use a second one, or go to a menustrip or a combination of the 2.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
