How can I make a child form hide everytime I click on a toolstrip menu?
It's like I have a parent form with toolstrip in it and the moment it loads it shows child form 1.
Then if i click on the child form 2 on toolstrip menu, child form 1 will hide itself, and vice versa.

i have this code:

CODE
Private Sub ToolStripLabel2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripLabel2.Click
        Dim perry As main
        perry = New main
        perry.MdiParent = Me
        perry.Show()
    End Sub

    Private Sub ToolStripLabel3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripLabel3.Click
        Dim perry As unhide
        perry = New unhide
        perry.MdiParent = Me
        perry.Show()
    End Sub


how to do it?

I am not completely sure what you are trying but try this code with the form names replaced with whatever yours are called

CODE


    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        Form3.MdiParent = Me
        Form2.MdiParent = Me
    End Sub

    Private Sub ToolStripButton1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButton1.Click
        If Form3.Visible Then Form3.Hide()
        Form2.Show()
                                
                                ' and because I hated the form position changing :)
                                Form2.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(0, 0)

    End Sub

    Private Sub ToolStripButton2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ToolStripButton2.Click
        If Form2.Visible Then Form2.Hide()
        Form3.Show()
                                Form3.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(0, 0)


    End Sub
