I have an application that I'm trying to use a textbox to store a form name:
Dim strName as String = frmMain.txtFormClose
Dim frm as Form = strName
frm = strName
frm.show
or
frm.close
and I get an error stating a string can not be converted to a form or something.
I'm trying to open and close forms in my application, based on the string text in my open and close textboxes, but it's not working.
simple problem Basically in form1 i have a line of SQL code in a rich text box called rtb_select
what i would like..This code to run under a connection string called strSQLSelectQuery in form2
I have been told someting like strSQLselectQuery = rtb_select.text would work however because rtb_select is in a different form in the same project it does not recognise rtb_Select
