multiple c# windows form application

Question

I have two forms, the main form and a form named FrmSteg. I added a button on the main form and entered the code below in the click event of the button.But i got an error "Only assignment, call, increment, decrement, and new object expressions can be used as a statement"

private void btnsteg_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    FrmSteg newForm = new FrmSteg();
    newForm.Show;
    this.Hide; 
}

newForm.Show();
this.Hide();

You forgot the () behind the method call:

newForm.Show();
this.Hide();

If the new form is supposed to be used as kind of a dialog, use ShowDialogue(newForm); This will "lock" your main form until the new form has been closed.
