Of course, just create a new instance of the form that you want to "pop up" and call .Show() on it.

Yes i did that thing.

But i want the look of that child page just as a faded popup window.

I like to formate both the child form and the parent form for that.

I had set the opacity of parent form in child form but it dose not work.

What should i do now. Please give me any idea.

Have you tried using MessageBox? What do you want to display on your PopUp window?

If it's a short message, MessageBox.Show(TextGoesHERE); is what you're looking for.

No actually i don't want to prompt any message.

But i want to open a child form which contain tab control in it.
But i want that form look like a popup window.

Means when ever this child form displayed the parent form must be faded.
just like we used modelpopupextender in web application in .net.
