You can resolve ambiguities such as this by using the 'fully quallfied name' of whichever Application class you're using:

static void Main()
{
System.Windows.Forms.Application.EnableVisualStyles();
System.Windows.Forms.Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run(new Form2());
}

The application is working fine but here you have used 3 forms but here i only have a case of 2 forms

static void Main()
        {
            Application.EnableVisualStyles();
            Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
            Application.Run(new Form2());
        }

getting a error Error
'Application' is an ambiguous reference between 'System.Windows.Forms.Application' and 'Excel.Application'    C:\Users\RAJ\Shortcut desktop\pressure vessel\22 Aug\URSPackage7\URSPackage\frmPressureVessel.cs    18    13    URSPackage
