Focus to Form

[Guest]

I have a form that I am hiding. When I show the form again, it isn't shown maximized. Rather, it is shown in the task bar and the user must click on the form in the task bar for it to be maximized and have focus. How do I programmatically have it appear maximized and focused when I show the form

Set the WindowState property to Maximized before you call the Show method.

That didn't work, I am still getting the same results. Below is the code I tried

container.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized
container.Show()

Thanks
