Hello Michael,

While I agree with you he could have googled first, I'm afraid you misread
gogs' question, he was asking about windows forms, not ASP.NET.

Answer to gogs' question:
Keep in mind that forms are still objects. You can have multiple instances
of a particular form class and changing properties of one won't affect other
instances.
You will need to pass a reference to an instance of Form1 to Form2 (either
in constructor or by using a property), make sure the TextBox you need to
change is visible (public or internal) and change it's Text property as you
wanted to do in the example you've posted.

class Form2 : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
private Form1 form1;
public Form2(Form1 form1)
{
this.form1 = form1;
//InitializeComponents(); or whatever you have in your constructor
}

void DoSomethingToForm1()
{
this.form1.textBox1.Text = "Foo";
}
}

Heh! Gormod o gogs.

If GoGs is Welsh, he'll understand. If not, well, sorry for this misuse of
bandwidth. Blame coincidence.

Peter, I'm a 'gog' so it wasn't wasted!

I think that's enough OT for this thread...
