How would I code the Program.cs or Form1.cs (whichever one) file so that Form 2 would appear above Form 1 as the program loads. For instance in Photoshop, the tools form appears above the main form as it loads, that's what I mean't.

Hi,
If you want to show the Form as Model Dialogue
you can use
Form.ShowDialogue()
or else if you want show it as independent Form then use
FormTool frm1 = new FormTool();
frm1.Owner = this;
frm1.Show();
-thanks

You can set the Owner property of form2 to be form1, then form2 will never go under form1, but it wouldn't be topmost, you can open other apps and they will go above it.
I think it's Owner, there's also a Parent property, it's either one or the other.

you can set the TopMost property of the form to True
frm.TopMost = true; // to appear at the top of the other form in your program
Happy programming
