Open A Form with a Form

    How do I open a form within a form (c# or any .net language) specifically in a panel.

    Current Code
            private void FncButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                var form = new System.Threading.Thread(FncForm);
                form.Start();
            }
    
            private static void FncForm()
            {
                CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = false;
                Application.Run(new FNCForm());
            }
    
    This will just currently load the form but not within the main form (panel).

    The other problem I run into is flickering, both in the main form and the secondary form. E.g. Redraw is slow...

    Solution:
            private void FncButtonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                var temp = new FNCForm{ TopLevel = false };
                panel.Controls.Add(temp);
                temp.Show();           
            }
