.NET Windows Forms in a Nutshell

The position at which a Form appears when it is first shown can be defined by a value from this enumeration. Note that you must set StartPosition before a Form is shown for it to have any effect.

public enum FormStartPosition { Manual = 0 , CenterScreen = 1 , WindowsDefaultLocation = 2 , WindowsDefaultBounds = 3 , CenterParent = 4 }
