TextBoxes on Multiple Forms

[fdcemt]

Im new to programming and am using visual basic. I need to know how to transfer data from a text box to another textbox on a different form. I also need to know how to update all of the textboxes, checkboxes, etc on a form as soon as it loads. Sorry for lack of difficulty of the question and i know that all of you must think im a joke but any help would be greatly appriciated.

Hi & welcome! We need to know what VB you are using: VBA, VB6 or VB.Net. Also, what do you mean by "update"? Update from where? Update with what? Thanks! --Sam

Hi!

If you have Text1 in Form1 and Text2 in Form2 (both textboxes):

Sub Copy()
Form2.Text2.Text = Form1.Text1.Text
End Sub

If you want it to happen when you load Form2, just write it down in the Form2_Load Sub. (that you can edit by clicking on Form2 and in the upper left select you'll find "Load" or "Initialize" or whatever your VB version uses)

You can also use strings.

Good Luck
