    I had this problem before. When you get back from the other form, you need to re-maximise the original form

    Hi MaseYo,

    in .NET CF applications, you can hide the title bar by maximizing the forms, thats true, but if the form is not maximized, it mustshow the Today title bar.

    But you can try calling the other form with "ShowDialog" method and leaving the previous form opened without hiding it...
