forms - How can I clear a TextBox in Form1 from Form2? C# -


this question has answer here:

i have textbox (let's call textbox1) inside form1. when user presses "new" clear screen, after accepting work lost (from within form2), how make textbox1 clear? can't access directly second form , can't think of feasible way this.

thanks in advance help!

add public flag of success in form2 , check afterwards. or can use built-in functionality of showdialog , dialogresult. more proper in terms of oop , logic changing value of form1 form2.

if change value of hardcoded form unable reuse form again.

with approach can reuse form again in place. using simple custom variable:

public class form2 : form {     public bool result { get; set; }      public void buttonyes_click(object sender, eventargs e)     {         result = true;         this.close();     }      public void buttonno_click(object sender, eventargs e)     {         result = false;         this.close();     } }  public class form1 : form  {     public void button1_click(object sender, eventargs e)     {         using (form2 form = new form2())         {              form.showdialog();              if (form.result) textbox1.text = string.empty;            }     } } 

using dialogresult or showdialog:

public class form2 : form {     public void buttonyes_click(object sender, eventargs e)     {         this.dialogresult = dialogresult.yes;         this.close();     }      public void buttonno_click(object sender, eventargs e)     {         this.dialogresult = dialogresult.no;         this.close();     } }  public class form1 : form  {     public void button1_click(object sender, eventargs e)     {         using (form2 form = new form2())         {             var result = form.showdialog();             if (result == dialogresult.yes) textbox1.text = string.empty;            }     } } 

it idea use using form not disposed after showdialog.
makes disposing deterministic. way can ensure disposed right after stopped using it.
