accessing vars from different form

[nacho2]

Can I handle an event of newform from firstform?

instead of this:

Private Sub firstform_Closed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.closed

writing something like this:

Private Sub newform_Closed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles newform.closed

That above doesn't work but maybe the idea is good.

Don't know I'm stuck.

Which event triggers when you go back to a window which never closed but had a new window opened on top? That could help too, I tried gotFocus and Activated and gotFocus doesn't seem to work and activated only triggers the first time you open the window.

thanks for your help
