Yes you can retrieve it . Here i have Taken 2 Forms Sample1 and Sample 2 From Sample 1 We can launch Sample 2 When we launch Sample2 It Changes the TextBox Text in Sample1 to Hello  private void Sample2_Load(object sender EventArgs e) { FormCollection coll = Application.OpenForms; foreach (Form f in coll) { if (f.Name == Sample1) { Control[] t = f.Controls.Find(textBox1 true); ((TextBox)(t[0])).Text = Hello; } } } Happy Coding :)
