Question

I am attempting to carry the value of a single textbox into another textbox on another form.

In form 1 i have the following code:

private SecondForm secondForm;
public void SecondFormTextBox()
{
    uname.Text = secondForm.uname.Text;
}

In form 2 I have the following code.

public TextBox uname
{
    get
    {
        return uname;
    }
}

I recieve the following errors, hope you can help!!

An object reference is required for
the non-static field, method, or
property
‘WindowsFormsApplication1.AdministratorHome.uname.get’

Ambiguity between
‘WindowsFormsApplication1.AdministratorHome.uname’
and
‘WindowsFormsApplication1.AdministratorHome.uname’

Answer 1

Lets do an exampe with passing a value from textBox on form1 on button press, to a textBox on form2.
Code:

//form1:
Form2 form2;

private void button1_Click()
{
   if(form2 == null)
   {
       form2 = new Form2();
       form2.Show(); 
   }
   form2.PassToForm2(textBox1.Text);
}

//form2:
private void PassToForm2(string msg)
{
   textBox1.Text = msg;
}

Hope it helps,
