One with a textbox, and one with a button and a textbox (we'll call this one form2). When I add a value to form2 and click the button I want the text to appear in form1's textbox.
My code in form2 is...
' on event button1_click...
form1.textbox1.text = me.textbox1.text
("me" being form2)
Anyways, how to pass a value from one form to another.

Alright so, I've got most of a program I am doing finished, but I'm having a problem at the end. The user enters a SKU (XXX-XX-XXX) and hits search, and it will search two excel sheets and output the quantity of both. The first sheet works perfectly, however the second it can have multiple instances of the SKU, and I need it to locate the one that says "XXX-XX-XXX Total" and output the quantity of that one, but I cannot seem to get adding the "total" suffix right, as it constantly says SKU not found. I've made sure it's parsing it correctly by outputing each parsed field into a msgbox,

from a WebService that returns 44 columns. I only want 3 or 4 of those to display in my DGV.I have 'sussed' it out one way by creating a new dataset from the original and then assigning that to the DGV but this just doesnt feel elegant enough.So I turned off the autogeneratecolumns on the DGV and then tried to manually add the columns I wanted. used:-
With uxDataReturnedGrid
.Columns.Add("ADDRESS", "Full Address")
<some more columns>

I need to be able to add buttons to a tool strip at run time. As of now I've been able to get the buttons to display with a nice little picture just how he wants and some text under it. Just can't figure out how to "enable" the click event for these buttons. Obviously I need them to do something rather than just sit there looking good and this is where I'm stuck. Right now I'd be happy for a message box to come up saying yep I'm working as I could then work with that. This is what I have for code so far... this is just to get it working I'll work on the actual code later.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim btnSomething As New ToolStripButton
btnSomething.Text = "Test 1"

I have four forms only. The first one is the main menu, that contains three buttons, the first and second buttons go to form2 and form3;Button 3 should open a new form (4) and to write there just the total price.
In Form2: DataGrideView that contains a table made by MS Access 2007. That table contains only two columns and three rows. When you select the item, the price of that item should be saved to be added to the other selected items
In Form3: ComboBox that contains another table also made by Access2007. The same thing, the table contains two columns and the selected item has a price that should be summed with the first selection in Form2.
My Questions are:
1. What I did by adding data from MSAccess2007, is it right?First: View -> server explorer -> Browse(my database) -> Test Connection --> OK ...Second: Data Sources --> Add new database --> etc Third: I dragged one table and put it inside Form2, then the another table to Form3.Is that all right? <--- This is my first question.
2. Now, is, what I have done in step 1, enough to pick up the price of the selected item(s)?if not, what is the code that I have to write to make this connection, and where?
3. As I said, when I click on Button3 in Form1, Form4 should appear and give me the grand total. How I can write a code that makes this summation, and where?
In the early generations of VB.NET visual studio, I used to see an automatically generated region named "Windows Form Designer generated code" that includes the code that generates the controls at the surface of a form. But what happened with VS 2008, I can't see that region any more ? Where are the lines of code that are automatically generated that create controls and set there properties ?????

is there any way to populate a listbox with totals data from previous pages? I'm working on a project for a class where the final form needs to have all the totals from the previous 3 pages (each page has one total each), in some capacity (so I do not necessarily need to use a listbox if there is an easier way to do this).One thing about the previous 3 forms, two are set up in radiobuttons and one is set up w/a checkbox format (but I will likely change the radiobuttons over to checkboxes as a later revision).I just can't figure out how to populate the listbox with info from a previous form, I keep thinking load events, but that doesn't take into account which options might be taken from previous forms.once the totals from the previous forms have been added to the final form I will need to add a 7% sales tax. I assume that something such an if then statement will take care of that though.Just wanted to run that everyone here at the forum just in case there is a better way to do that.
