Updating Control on Main Form form Child Form

Guest

Is there anyway to update a control held on my main form
from a child form? I've tried making the control itself
public but I still can't seem to access it

I'm not sure how you're accessing the parent from the child, but if you're
using "Parent" you'll need to cast it to the type of your parent form (like
"(Form1) this.Parent") in order to see anything public off of it.
