如何以面板形式访问控件

Question

I have a panel named panel1, two buttons named buttonLoad and buttonSave. All of these controls live in Form1.

There's another Form(Form2) which consist of a textbox named textbox1.

when the buttonLoad is clicked, the Form2 is loaded into the panel1.

After typing something in the textbox1 when I click the save button how can i get the text that was typed? ( I want to know how to get the textbox1.text which is in Form2 loaded to panel1)

Answer 1

It would be easier to nail down with a code sample but from the description it sounds like you have a control within a form that you would like to access.

If the form is in a separate file, say an ascx that you place onto the page, then you will need to make sure the textbox control within that form is declared public, or you might need to make a publicly accessible variable within the ascx file that grabs the value out of the textbox.

It might be something like

Form2 myForm = new Form2();
string val = myForm.textbox1.Text;

if your textbox is publicly accessible or

Form2 myForm = new Form2();
string val = myForm.MyAccessorVarForTextBox1;

if you use a public variable that accesses a private textbox.

Hope this gives you something to start with.
