Difference between Show and ShowDialog?

[Curious]

I have a windows form, and it seems that I can use either Show or
ShowDialog to get it displayed. I wish to know the difference between
the two methods. Thanks!

if you show your form with show, it will put it on the screen and then
program will continue on the next line as for showdialog will put it on the
screen and wait for a close command.

It's the difference between a modal and modeless form.
