Which is Form2

Hi Winder,
                There are lot of ways to accomplish ur objective:

1. As xtramac suggested u can use public variables.

2. U can also use global variables, which gets initialised from form1, and u can read those from form2.

3. You can do it through constructor itself.

Lemme give u a small code snippet[C#] to support point 3.

In Form1[anywhere u want to call form2]

form2 myForm2=new form2(string Username);
myForm2.Show();
-------------------------------------------------------
In Form2 [Consructor]

public form2(string DataFromForm1)
{
//
// Required for Windows Form Designer support
//
InitializeComponent();
//
// TODO: Add any constructor code after InitializeComponent call
//
}

So, DataFromForm1 will contain the value u passed from form1.  

Hope it helped else revert back, incase u need more clarification.

form2 myForm2=new form2(string Username);
myForm2.Show();

How to code this in VB ?

This is my VB Code:

Dim sf As Form2
sf = New Form2
sf.Show()
Me.Hide()

Hi Winder,
               My previous code snippet was in C#. Here is the equivalent VB.Net code...

Form1
------------------

Public Class Form1 Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form Public msgToPass As String Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click msgToPass = "It's fun" Dim myForm2 As New Form2(msgToPass) myForm2.Show() End Sub End Class

Form2
------------------

Public Class Form2 Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form #Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "     Public msgReceived As String          Public Sub New(ByVal msgReceived)          MyBase.New()         'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.         InitializeComponent()         'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call        MessageBox.Show(msgReceived)     End Sub #End Region End Class

Look, in Form1 and Form2 code, whatever changes I made, is in bold. Hope it's clear to you now, and this is what you are looking for. If not so, hit back again

Public Function receive()
        ns = client.GetStream()
        Dim bytes(client.ReceiveBufferSize.MaxValue) As Byte
        ns.Read(bytes, 0, CInt(client.ReceiveBufferSize))
        returndata = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
        Return returndata
End Function
