How to Display text from another form to the main form

Hello, everyone. How can I display text from another form that currently has
the focus. I'm doing a search in sql 2000, to dot it. I call a search form
and query my criteria, when it founds the value a display this on a list
view. Next, when the user selects the row, I want that to display the
information on the main form.

You might try passing a reference for the control in the main form that you
want to display the text in to the sub form. I have done this with a
progress bar on my main form that I wanted a different class to update and it
works well. Other options are a delegate or implement a notification
interface.

Hello, I know I sound like a one-note Johnny on this but I'm still looking for a solution. I need to display characters coming in from a serial port or a socket.
