One source of data and 2 display forms

Question

I have one data source that is processed by Form1 app. I wish to split the input data and display some data on Form1 using a listbox control (already done) and display the remaining data on Form2 also using a listbox control and update both forms at the same time. Is their a way to globalize the Form2 listbox control to access it from Form1 app. Thanks for your help.

Hi The same stratogy need to apply. What ever values you need to pass across pages declare a property which can return those values acoss any page. I am not seeing any problem here. May be not understanding your real problem.

Jaish Thank you for your reply. In Form1 I receive a data steam that is currently displayed in the form1 listbox. I want to create a new Form2 with a new listbox and display some of that Form1 data on the Form2 listbox. I have looked for a simple solution and have not found one yet. Thanks. MikeT

Hi If you are asking to take Fom2 ListBox in Form1 it's possible. Do below steps Define a property in Form2 as an entry point to access it's ListBox to outside classes public ListBox Form2ListBox { get { return this .listBox1; } } Call this proerty in Form1 like below Form2 frm = new Form2 (); ListBox lb = frm.Form2ListBox;
