accessing vars from different form

[nacho2]

Hi guys, going crazy with this:

When I want to open a new form I do something like:

Dim newform as fromclass1 = new formclass1
newform.show()

if I want to change a textbox in newform I can do:

newform.textbox.text= "nice"

Now, what if I want to access a public element (such as a combobox or textbox) in the original form (from where newform opened) from the form newform?

I just want to do the same I did above to access newform.textbox but inverse. The form from where newform was called already exists (obviously) and it was called firstform, but doing, from newform:

firstform.textbox doesn't work,
not even if I declare firstform as public.

Hope I explained it clearly enough.

Thanks
