Do you mean:

1. Design-time?
2. Run-time?

If run-time, do you mean:

1. All forms defined in the project?
2. All open forms

If at Design-time, then I don't know.

If you mean at run-time, and you want all forms declared, you need to resort to reflection. Iterate through all types in your assembly(/ies) and find all types inheriting from the Form class.

Something like this would do:

Type formType = typeof(Form);
foreach (Type type in Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetTypes())
   if (formType.IsAssignableFrom(type))
   {
       // type is a Form
   }

If you mean at run-time, and you want all open forms, you can use Application.OpenForms.
