How can I get the Xwinnerform to stay on top an keep the main form from bei开发者_开发百科ng clicked, I tried ShowDialog but I cant get it to work.

 static public bool CheckWinner(Button[] myControls)
            {
                //bolean statement to check for the winner 
                bool gameOver = false;
                for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
                {
                    int a = Winners[i, 0];
                    int b = Winners[i, 1];
                    int c = Winners[i, 2];

                    Button b1 = myControls[a], b2 = myControls[b], b3 = myControls[c];
                    if (b1.Text == "" || b2.Text == "" || b3.Text == "")
                        continue;
                    if (b1.Text == b2.Text && b2.Text == b3.Text)
                    {
                        xWinnerForm xWinnerForm = new xWinnerForm();
                        xWinnerForm.ShowDialog(b1.Text + " is the Winner");

                    }



                }


                       return gameOver;
            }
        enter code here

There is no overload of ShowDialog that accepts a string. As was suggested to you in another question, do not use the Show (or ShowDialog) method to populate the value of a label. Either create a property on your form that gets and sets the text of the label or create a function that sets it, then just call ShowDialog(this).

Sounds like you need a MessageBox

MessageBox.Show(b1.Text + " is the Winner");

My guess is that you need to pass the parent form as an argument to ShowDialog:

xWinnerForm.ShowDialog(mainForm);

Since you are passing it a string, I'm guessing that you overloaded ShowDialog in xWinnerForm. Add an overload that also accepts the IWin32Window parameter and passes it on to the base class method. Or better yet, do not overload ShowDialog, but pass the window text to the xWinnerForm() constructor instead.
