[RESOLVED] Parent/Child Form Problem [open and closing them]

[jareck]

Hi all,
My project is a game, a Hangman game, i have problems with forms, as follows:
First I want my project to have a splash screen and i put it as start-up form, then when splash screen finish executing itself, it hides itself

this.hide();

and load the menu form then if you chose new game in menu form it loads new form "pre-game" i did this form to get from the user some parameters for the game,
from the pre-game form is a button to start the game and shows the "game" form, but as you can see the parent child relationship is like this:
Splash screen -> Main Menu -> pre-game -> Game.
Now my problem is .. I can't close the Menu form when the Game form loads, or even hide it. Is there any way to load a form independent from other
(i mean not as parent/child relationship), just load a form as a parent itself...
I'm waiting for a reply.
Thanks in advance
