I know this seems like a Basic question but I can not seem to figure this out. I have two forms in this project "Login" and "Config". Login is the base form that loads. Inside the Login_Load function I try and read the config file for the application. If the application is not avaialble I then open the Config form and want to hide the Login form. The config form does open but I can not seem to hide the Login form. I added some MessageBox's so I could see whats going on and it DOES hide the login form inside the ReadConfig function but after that function completes and it continues on the Login_Load the form displays again. Can someone help me figure out what is going on?

// Config file is available so lets read it

return true;
}
else
{
// Config file is not avaialble so lets display the config edit form
Config frmConfig = new Config();
frmConfig.Show();
this.Visible = false;
this.Hide();
return false;
}
