Unable to open new form

Hi,

I have been programming in Java for a few years and am now trying to teach myself C#. I am using Visual Studio 2010 as my IDE.

I have created a basic form called AddVideo, and I have a separate file called Program.cs
I want Program.cs to display an instance of the AddVideo form.
So far I have tried to do:

Code:

---

AddVideo form = new AddVideo();

---

But when I run Program.cs, it displays the program for less than a second and then exits.

How can I fix this?

Thanks

Try

Code:

---

   
static class Program
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// The main entry point for the application.
        /// </summary>
        [STAThread]
        static void Main()
        {
            Application.EnableVisualStyles();
            Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
            Application.Run(new AddVideo());
        }
    }

An IDE could help you avoid this sort of syntactical forgetfulness. I strongly recommend SharpDevelop since it is free, open-source.

I am using an IDE, Visual Studio 2010.

Oh, well then use it to generate a WinForms project. :-)
