Hi,
I have used this before selection
Form1.ActiveForm.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized;

and after selection
Form1.ActiveForm.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized;

The problem is, the Form is minimizing properly but at the point of Maximizing it is showing an error like "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object". Hope someone can help me.

Basha,

The problem is when you set the window state of the active form for form1. When you do this, there is no active form in the property Form1.ActiveForm. Did you try TP's answer? His solution should work for you.
