Question

Today i’m trying to pass a variable between two datagrids.
The first is on an main form, and the second is in a dialog form.

I tried using functions and also through public variables like this:
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

I tried many ways to do this but I can not any solution, someone give me some idea to do this would be really grateful.

Answer 1

You could use delegates to pass information between a main form and dialog form. For instance your variable to be used in both datagrids. I’d give this a quick google.
