You should give more details about your problem... But you can pass a reference of your form to the second one and then edit it from the second one... But, I repeat, we need a more detailed question in order to solve your issue.

You really need to go read the FAQ for hints on how to ask a question. You would think after 3 years, you would have found the time by now.

It really depends on what you are doing.
But...If your have this:
Form1 opens Form2.
Form2 takes user input, user presses Submit.

If Form2 then closes, and you want the data in Form1, then use ShowDialog to display Form2, and access the user data when it closes - which will be the next instruction. (You should check for OK / Cancel before using the data). This is similar to what happens when you use a MessageBox or OpenFileDialog.

If Form2 stays open, then create an even in Form2 which Form1 handles. In the event handler, use the sender parameter to identify the instance of Form2, and again access the information.

In both cases, use Properties in Form2 to supply the information: do not expose controls directly!
