I have Form1 launches Form2. On Form2, user will enter input (a string).
When I click OK to close Form2, I need to have that string value populated TextBox1 on Form1 (the parent form).
I only find clues on doing the other way (passing from parent to child), which I have already been doing fine. But don't know how to let child form recognize (already opend/launched) parent form to access control there.
Thank you!

What version of VB are you using?
And just out of curiosity, how are you passing info from parent to child?
(Have you considered the use of global variables?)
Visual Studio 2005.
Here is what I used on parent form to launch the child form:
'============== ====
Dim UserDefinedForm As New diagUserDefined
UserDefinedForm .Show()
UserDefinedForm .txSelected.Tex t = "Passed from Parent"
'============== ============
It works fine and on diagUserDefined win form, the string shows up. But when I need to get a string on this form, how should I pass it back onto a text field of the parent?
Thank you!
Why can't you just access the controls on the parent or child form in the same way? I konw you can in VB6, but not sure of the syntax in later versions.
Note that one thing which may cause you problems is if you're trying to access controls on a form after closing the form. I don't think it's possible. At a guess, VB would load the form again (but not show it), and the controls would contain whatever defaults they start with.

I'm still trying to fully understand how best to pass variables between

On a current site I've done, I've had one userControl do the logic and set
the variable, and then I had other usercontrols simply read this by
traversing the class structure: siteClass.userControlClass.specficVariable.
That worked fine.
The new site I'm working on is a bit different, as I'm using multiple

Before I started to create table, etc to track unique form field record
number assigments I thought I'd check to see if there is now a better way to
do this in .NET.
I have a parent form (table) and children form (table). Relationship equals
one to many. I'd like to auto number the fields accordingly and traditionaly
I assign a unique number based on a table value that I retrieve + 1.
i.e.
Parent record field value = 1

hi everyone.........
I have a task, I have fragmented the task into subtask. I have planned
to create a class to each subclass and one parent class to handle the
sub tasks. Each subclass are saved in seperate file and all my
subclasses and parent class are placed in the same folder.
The parent class is subclass of wx.Frame, and subclasses are subclass
of wx.Panel. Each subclass will create a GUI for each task..

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
