Question

I’m trying to pass a variable from a child form that contains a DataGridView, I’m calling a function to do the action, but I can not succeed alone function gets the value but does not alter the form’s datagridview father, the code I’m using is:

Invoice_new (Parent FORM):

Controls:
DatagridView: invoice_items

Public WriteOnly Property ValueFromChild() As String
    Set(ByVal Value As String)
        MsgBox(Value) 'Work
        With Me.invoice_items
            .Rows.Add() 'Does not WORK
            .Item(0, 0).Value() = Value 'Does not WORK
        End With
    End Set
End Property

invoice_new_search_item (Child FORM)

Controls:
DatagridView: search_items

invoice_new.ValueFromChild() = search_items.Item(0, current_row).Value
