I am a student and therefore not to bright ;-)

I am currently working on an assignment in C# which requires me to create a program in a windows application using more then one form which I have never done before, infact I have 5 forms and I just cannot seem to figure out how to move information from a variable between them.

I have created a class in which which I have declared all the variables I will need but I cant get to the information from my forms.

Any help would be greatly appriciated.

I'm not too clear on what you're after. Do you want the 'information' (as in, the values) of components on your form (like the text from a text box)? Or are you literally trying to provide access of declared variables in one form class, to another form class?

Or something entirely different again?

Have a look at this video tutorial. This might help you a bit...
How to Transfer Information Between Forms

[katspn]

Thanks you for your help,
I have found what the problem was, I did not make the variables "public static".
:cursing:

[semprance]

inside a function? Doesn't sound like legal syntax.

I was in these situation,and that worked me well.

To transfer data(s) beetwen forms :
Create example a string

:

public static string test = "";

then

test=textbox1.text; //or whatever you want.

Form2 form_that_we_want_to_send_data = new Form2();

//In the main part of form_that_we_want_to_send_data

label1.text=Form1.test;

Hi,

//In Form2 (that_we_want_to_Received_data):
Public int MyVariable;


//In Form1 (that we_want_to_send_data):
Form2 frm = new Form2()
frm.MyVariable = Convert.ToInt32(TextBox1.Text);
frm.Show();

Good Luck
