Hi.
I'm fairly new to C# programming and and working on some code and require some help.
I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and creating a Windows application. The look of the program had like a MS Office ribbon at the top of the application.
Now for where I am getting stuck, I can modify the buttons on the ribbon (to call it such) and create the code to open a new window. But the problem is the window opens in a new window not the existing window.
The
ribbon has say button saying 'About' and 'Help', when I click on About
I want the information below the ribbon to display the 'About'
information, and when I click on 'help' it will display the
information/text for 'help'
Anyone know how I can do the above?
As I said I'm fairly new to programming and even if someone can tell
me what I need to research/learn to be able to do it that would be
great as I can't find a thing.

EDIT:I think I have it sorted out now. Was able to talk to my old UNIX admin (who programs as well),
I
want to do something like the below to be able to have Form1 open and
when I click on a button for Form2 it should open in he same form
window (if that makes sense).
static int x = 200; static int y = 200;
private void Button1_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e) { // Create a new Form1 and set its Visible property to true. Form1 form2 = new Form1(); form2.Visible = true;
// Set the new form's desktop location so it // appears below and to the right of the current form. form2.SetDesktopLocation(x, y); x += 30; y += 30;
// Keep the current form active by calling the Activate // method. this.Activate(); this.Button1.Enabled = false; }
