Hi Ferfried,

Does that mean if Form2 is opened from Form1, Form2 must "locate" the label
in Form1 by using this method ?

Are we still possible to do like vb6, form1.label.text = something,
form3.label.text = something ?


so if got 3 form, form1 open form2 & form3, how form2 change the text in
form3's label ?

Please help.


Thanks,
Tee

There are various methods, but all you need, is a /reference/ to the
other form/control.

form3.label.text = something ?

No. Default instances are not supported any more.

so if got 3 form, form1 open form2 & form3, how form2 change the text in
form3's label ?

You will have to pass a reference to this form too.
