Win Forms question

[bogus]

Hello,
Consider a WinForm A and a WinForm B. I want to click a button from B and write something in a textBox from A. Can you help me with that?
Thanks

Do you have a reference to the form instance from WinForm B? If not, then use the static keyword on the method declaration that writes the text in WinForm A.

It's like this, i got my main form..FormA..i push a button and create a FormB (FormB x =new FormB(); x.ShowDialog(); ) now i want to push a button from x and write something in a textbox from my main form..there is no instance of FormA

In FormA, try writing a method like this in Form A:

public static WriteText(string TheText)
{
 textBox1.Text = TheText;
}

Then, in Form B, try this:

FormA.WriteText("Hello world");

I dunno if it works or not? The "static" keyword should do the trick.

thanks for your reply Xav i will see try and let you know about the results

[Xav]

Ok.

In this context:

public static WriteText(string TheText)
{
textBox1.Text = TheText;
}

textBox1 seems not be visible

You put that on Form A, which contains the textbox.
