Question

I have two Windows Forms (MyApp, Generator), and I need to call Generator from MyApp

Form gen = new Generator();
gen.Show();
string result = gen.IDontKnowWhatToDoHere();

My Generator.cs Form has three TextBox and a Button Ok, so when the user type some text in the three TextBoxes an click Ok I want to get the the Text typed in those three TextBoxes.

Do you have any ideas how I can achieve this.

Thanks.

class Generator : Form
{
    public string Text1 { get; private set; }

    void ok_Click (object sender, EventArgs)
    {
        this.Text1 = txt1.Text;
        ...
        this.Close();
    }
}

Form gen = new Generator();
gen.ShowDialog();
string text1 = gen.Text1;
...

class TextInfo
{
    public string Text1 { get; set; }
    ...
}

class Generator : Form
{
    public TextInfo Textinfo { get; private set; }

    public Generator(TextInfo info)
    {
        this.TextInfo = info;
    }

    void ok_Click (object sender, EventArgs)
    {
        this.TextInfo.Text1 = txt1.Text;
        ...
        this.Close();
    }
}

TextInfo info = new TextInfo();
Form gen = new Generator(info);
gen.ShowDialog();
string text1 = info.Text1;
