Variable Pointers

I am having difficulty setting and retrieving the string
value of a variable on one form from another form. Can
someone please point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Is that variable protected or private? If so, you cannot get to it
without first adding a property or some other accessor method to the
form.

As a blanket statement, that's a bad idea.
