I'm looking to find the basic concepts or best practise for making windows
forms that have an active area that can display other forms but still look
like the same form.

I am making a setup screen form for an application. It consists of a list
box on the left (and on the right the options depending on what line is
selected in the listbox).

I want to have the form to show the various options on the right when i
click a value in the listbox. Is there a way to break this down so all the
code isn't in the main form?? i.e. when a line is selected in the listbox it
displays the options in the area to the right (but from another class or
form?)

MDIform is a solution:
1.put listbox on left, set listbox.Dock = left ,this.IsMdiContainer = true
2.create other form, set otherform.MdiParent = this.
