Hi,
c# .Net 3.5 visual studio 2008, windows xp
I have a main form in a project, given a specific set of circumstances another form is instantiated and displayed to the user:
Form frmT = new frmTargetFolder(expName, this); frmT.Show();
As you can see, I am passing a reference to the new form from the current one. My question is, what do I have to do to a method so that it is exposed to the new form, the same for a variable?
I have tried defining the functions as public, but I can't seem to access them, also I have written a Get and Set method for a variable, again how do I expose these functions and methods to other forms?
public void hit()
{
MessageBox.Show("hit it");
}
bool setOverRide
{
get
{
return OverRide;
}
set
{
OverRide = value;
}
}
The main form is called frmDataXfer and the form, form which I am trying to call the functions and methods of frmDataXfer is called frmTargetFolder, an instance of which is created in the frmDataXfer and referenced as frmT.
Thanks, R.
