Add the name of the unit where is defined Form2 to your uses clause, like this:

uses unit2;

just after implementation clause.

In your event, put:

Form2.show;

Feel free to ask.

Of course. One a teacher tell me: "Who ask is a fool five minutes, who doesn't ask is a fool for all the life". He wanted to say: "Don't feel as a fool, if you have a question, do it".

Lazarus is fully compatible with Delphi.

Not quite. Lazarus does not support form inheritance. Sorting DBGrids the Delphi way does not work in Lazarus etc, etc. There are others.

Some of these incompatibilities are due to non-portable Windows specific issues

Then Lazarus is 99% compatible with Delphi.

Lazarus does not support form inheritanceEhm! Are you sure?

Some of the things have worked very well, esp. Frames (this is a great feature)
