Friend I believe in windows applications the above problem could be easily solved. There are multiple ways of achieving it. I will suggest the easiest one :) 1) In the form1 selecte the textbox and in properties window change the Modifiers property to Public. This will make the modifier of TextBox in form1 to be public like following public System.Windows.Forms. TextBox textBox1; Now the textbox could be accessible from the form 2 as following: Form1 form1 = new Form1 (); string value =form1.textBox1.Text; Hope this could answer your question. Cheers JP

Hi friend you can achieve like this declare a public variable like public str=textbox1.text; create the instance of the form like Form1 frm=new Form1(); string str=frm.str;
