Hi there Mehmet

The problem you're posing is actually about encapsulation in OOP (Object Oriented Programming), so it might help you to think about it in this way:

Let's say you have two classes: A and B, and B has to be able to alter A in some way.
The only way for B to be able to alter A is if:

1) B knows A (has a reference to it)
2) A lets B access the variables B wants to change

You can accomplish part 1 by adding a constructor to form B which accepts A as a parameter and then stores a reference to A:

public class frmChangeSettings
{
    //to store a reference to the main form
    private frmTerminal _theTerminalForm;

    public frmChangeSettings(frmTerminal theMainForm)
    {
        this._theTerminalForm = theMainForm;
    }
}



You can accomplish part 2 by adding properties to frmChangeSettings

public class frmTerminal
{
    public string TextBox1sText
    {
        get {return this.TextBox1.Text;}
        set {this.TextBox1.Text = value;}
    }
    
    //.... etc for the other properties you want to be able to change
}


Then when you want to change something (for example the text in TextBox1) on from frmChangeSettings, then you just use

this._theTerminalForm.TextBox1sText = "something something"


Kind regards - Jakob Cool | :cool:
