I have a form displayed ( Form 1) . On Right Click I am displaying another form ( Form 2) . Now when I shift my focus to Form1 I want Form2 to remain Visible but not active ( something like Properties Window ) .
How do I do it ?
Thanks in advance

Form.Show allows me to specify whether I want Modal or Modeless . But still it doesn't work
Any Clue ?

Set the property style of the form2 as ToolWindow (ToolBox).
Show form one.
On right click show form2
Suddenly you change the focus to form1
That's all....
