I am a C# developer currently being forced to update a VB app. I have a series of forms that can call an advanced search form (ASF) which must be able to cause the calling form to show the record that corresponds to that selected in the ASF while staying open. Your solution for using delegates was so simple that I was easily able to adapt it to suit my needs.

The passing of data between forms was great and helped a lot. Can you please give an example of the following The display in form 2 must change in the same window when you change the text in form 1 and click the send button. So there must not pop up a new window just refresh or update the existing window.

your example works great for 1 textbox and 1 label, but what about 2 textboxs and 2 labels on separate forms. would you please show an example on how that works. Thanks Steve

Hello, I thought the article you wrote regarding passing data between forms was excellent. I was attempting to use method 2 (Objects) when I received the following error: Error 1 'textBox1' is already declared as 'Friend WithEvents TextBox1 As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox' in this class. C:\Users\Steve\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\Passing Data Between Forms-Objects\Passing Data Between Forms-Objects\Form1.vb 3 23 Passing Data Between Forms-Objects. I am not sure how to correct this error. I coded the app exactly as you suggested. Thanks Steve

The Simplest Approach. Step 1: Enter text in Form1’s TextBox1. Invoke the Form2 window by calling the Form2's show method in Form1's button click event handler. Private Sub btnSend_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSend.Click Form2.Show() End Sub Step 2: In Form2's Load method access Form1's TextBox1 and assign its Text to Form2’s Label1's Text. Private Sub Form2_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Label1.Text = Form1.TextBox1.Text End Sub

It's quite a long time since I looked for an elegante way to transmit parameters between forms. So, now I found four ways ! Thank you .
