Change notifyIcon during runtime. You may think it's simple but..

soulstace
Hi all,

I have a project with two forms. Call them form1 and form2.

On form1, I have a notifyIcon which appears in the system tray when the application starts.

On form2, I have a textbox, browse button, and an openFileDialog.

Now,

On form2, when I browse for and choose an Icon, I want the icon to be applied to form1.notifyIcon.Icon property.

Can anyone help me out with this? I have all the code in which sets the icon. The only thing I don't understand is how to change icon from form2 without creating new instance of form1 class.

When I create a new instance of form1 class I end up with two form1s open on the screen.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Solved.

Pardon me for not searching harder the first time. Sometimes it's hard to know what to search for. This time I got lucky :)
