Question

eternal question about twoForms:

frm02.Text = "Objects";
ds02 = new DataSet();
ds02.ReadXml(path02);
frm02.dgv02.DataSource = ds02.Tables[0];  //error: dgv02 is inaccessible...
frm02.ShowDialog();

pleaseHelp!

Answer 1

You need to make dgv02 public. By default, when you add types via the designer, they are not public. You can edit their properties in the design window, and change the accessibility level to public.

That being said, a better option might be to create a public property that returns the appropriate control, or, even better, allows you to set the data. For example, if you add this method to your form:

public void SetDatasource(DataSet data)
{
     this.dgv02.DataSource = data;
}

You could then call this as:

frm02.SetDatasource(ds02);
