Create an int variable in the main form class. When the user enters/selects the number option (One Two Three etc.) from the object ( combo box  label  etc.) have that selection assign the corresponding number to the int variable. For example: public partial class frmMain:Main { int intNumber; //Using a combo box private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender EventArgs e) { switch (comboBox1.Text) { case One: intNumber = 1; break; case Two: intNumber = 2; break; case Three: intNumber = 3; break; default: break; } } }
