Solution 1

This is bad practice, but if you insist on doing it, just make the control/object accessibility modifier public, and as long as the form is instantiated, you can get to it from anywhere that can get to the form.

Solution 2

You probably also want to look at delegates so that form2 can then run methods on form1
