I would like to know how to open child form from dialog form.


Is the child form to be a child of the dialog form or of
another form?

Child form is meant that is child of MDI form.


Does the dialog form know the MDI form or is it a multi-purpose form
that can be used from different places? That's a question of
abstraction. What does the dialog form do? Will it be closed after
the child Form has been opened? Which results can it pass back to
the caller? 

My dialog form is login form. When application start,
dialog is open through ShowDialog.


Is the login form the startup object of the project?

If login is successful, I would like to close my dialog form and open
other  child form of MDI.


This sounds like the MDI form is the startup form.

Which one is true?

I ask to find the best solution.
