Change data in th midst of Forms

[Rado]

Hello.
I've got one problem.
I have to forms> Form1 and Form2.
Form1 and form2 are loaded, And I want change some data in Form1 from Form2.
I tryed to write this>>
Dim frm as new form1
frm.textbox1.text="Peter", but this is probably bad, because program show me
error.

How can I do it?
Thanks for answers.

This will create a new instance of 'Form1' and won't use the original
instance. Instead, you will have to make a reference to the
form's instance available to the other form, for example by passing it
in a parameter of a method or by setting a property.

Hi Rado,

You did of course understand all Herfried said
However when not, in code it is.

dim frm as new form2
frm.myvalue = "Peter"
frm.show

As public value in beneath the designer generated code in form2
public myvalue as string
And in the loadevent from that form2
me.textbox1.text = myvalue

I hope this helps?
