Hi

I want to know how to pass datas Between forms.ie,I''ve one form with 1 textbox and 1 button.When i click on this button another form with 1 textbox & a button will come.What I want is when I click on the button in the second form ,the value inthe textbox of the second form should come inthe first form''s textbox also.
Now I''ve written code in the paint event.But this will not work inthe button click.So give me a solution

Hi Resmi, You could call the MainForm from the childForm by creating a method as shown below in the child form.

private MainForm mainForm;
public void StoreSender(MainForm form)
{
	this.mainForm = form;
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	Form2 f = new Form2();
	f.StoreSender((MainForm)this);
	f.Show();
}

Now you could access the controls on the mainForm in the button_click event as follows:

private void button2_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	this.mainForm.textBox1.Text=this.textBox2.Text;
}

I have attached a sample which illustrates this completely. Please let me know if this meets your requirements. Regards, Mano Test_1.zip
