>>>I created a form in C# in Visual Studio. I found that the form won't pause and I was not able test each button on the form. How do I make the form pause so that I can push on each button?

I note that you have the main method in the form.
When I create a winform app, the main method is automatically created in program.cs, which instantiates and executes the form.
