The only issue is you need textbox object created at class level not local or method specific. As your ChooseFolder method creates new instance of Textbox you are not actually saving the value to same textbox. try below code. public class yourFormClass :Form { TextBox textbox ; private void btnBrowse_Click( object sender EventArgs e) { //LoadControls(); ChooseFolder(); } public void ChooseFolder() { if (folderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) { //TextBox textbox = new TextBox(); textbox.Text = folderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath; MessageBox.Show(textbox.Text); } } private void btnAdd_Click( object sender EventArgs e) { int count = panel1.Controls.OfType ().ToList().Count; textbox = new TextBox(); count = panel1.Controls.OfType ().ToList().Count; textbox.Location = new Point(3 25 * count); textbox.Size = new Size(188 20); textbox.Name = textbox_ + (count + 1); textbox.TextChanged += new System.EventHandler( this .TextBox_Changed); panel1.Controls.Add(textbox); Button button = new Button(); //count = panel1.Controls.OfType ().ToList().Count; button.Location = new Point(207 25 * count); button.Size = new Size(75 23); button.Name = button_ + (count + 1); button.Text = Browse  + (count + 1); button.Click += new System.EventHandler( this .btnBrowse_Click); panel1.Controls.Add(button); } }
