Vulpes's code should work.

string activeFormName =Form.ActiveForm.Name;

Try this:

Form f = Form.ActiveForm;
sForm_name = (f != null) ? f.Name : "";

Check by using

Form curForm = Form.ActiveForm; if (!(Search(curForm, frmCollection))) { frmCollection.Add(curForm); curForm.Closed += MyForm_Closed; }
