Send str from 2nd form to txtBox in main form?

[fdpelli]

Hello

I wonder how I set the txtText in frmMain to be equal to a string in frmChild?

Like this: frmMain.txtText.Text = strText

Remember that in .NET, all forms are really objects.

If you want to set a property in an instance of some object, you have to have a reference to that object.

Same thing in this case - your frmChild needs a reference to frmMain before it can set a public property or call a public method on it. When you initially create frmChild, you'll need to pass it a copy of your frmMain's variable that you can then use later.
