copying text input from one form to the other

[steve_rm]

Hello,

I have 2 forms and l want to be able to copy text inputs from one form to the other form. In Visual Basic this was very easy to do. e.g. txtStudentID.Text = frmNewStudent.txtNewStudentID.text.

But i am not sure how to do this in C#.

Can any one tell me.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

assuming you instantiated the form2 and declared textbox1 of form2 as public. you can do like this.

      Form2 f=new Form2();
      private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
      {
         f.Show();
      }

      private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
      {
         f.textBox1.Text=textBox1.Text;
      }

Hello,

Thanks for you reply.

I think l will do it the way that you said.

Just another question, l am creating a small database application for a small library system. I have 2 tables books and students.

The properties of students are: StudentID, Name, Address, Email. I have never done a database application using c#. Just on the student table, how can l make that oop, for example adding, updating and deleting.

I find it easy to do it the vb way.

Any example programs or tutorials.

Many thanks in advance.

Steve

hi there...try this.
for the insert (adding) method.

/// <summary>
        /// Button Save
        /// </summary>
        private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
           SqlConnection cn=new SqlConnection("your connection here....");
           cn.Open();
           String cmdText="insert into Student (StudentID,xname,address,xmail) values('" + textBox1.Text + "','" + textBox2.Text + "','" + textBox3.Text + "','" + textBox4.Text + "')";
           SqlCommand cm=new SqlCommand(cmdText,cn);
           cm.ExecuteNonQuery();
           cn.Close();
                      
        }

hope it helps.
