Hi foxnight,

Maybe these steps can be helpful for you...

Set the startup form in Windows Forms:

1. In Solution Explorer, right-click the project and choose Properties. The Project property page opens with the General properties displayed.
2. Choose the form you want as the startup form from the Startup Object drop-down list.

Official MSDN documentation about this: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa984318(v=vs.71).aspx

Or you can do it with code like this:

// ... other code
static void Main() {
            Application.EnableVisualStyles();
            Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
            Application.Run(new Form1());  // Set your startup form here
}
// ... other code

Hope this was helpful for you..

Best regards!

if you are talking about the first form to display in Windows Form application, it is set in the program.cs file.  Such as Application.Run( new Form2());

In order to specify the first form, go to Program.cs file (which can be found in Solution Explorer), and change Form1 to Form2.
