I used a hook to listen for keyup/down system wide in this[^] article - it may be of use to see the principle in action.

I do not see where this has anything to do with c#.
You may get lucky and receive a good answer, but I would have thought that this question really belongs in the General Database forum.

How to access a control on a Form from other Forms without creating an instance of it?

Hey budyies i wanted to access(insert datas in to) a listview item in one of my other forms ........... while the form that contains the listview is running(lets say it FormListView) and the other form is still running @ the same time(lets say FormSender) ......... I wanted to read a data from the listview in the FormSender and send it back to the FormListView ......... even if I make the Modifier Property of the FormListView as Public I cant call it like this from the FormSender

FormListView.listView1.Items.add("xxxx");

but I can access variables that are declared like this ....

Public static string x;

I can access by writing this code with out creating its instance

FormListView.x="xxxxx";

Please help me.

Thank you

I'd create public or internal Add and Read methods on the FormListView (keeping the ListView's access modifier private).
When you create the instance, hold it in a field

public class FormSender
{
    FormListView formListView;

    // ...

    void MethodThatInstanciatesFormListView()
    {
        formListView = new FormListView();
        formListView.Show();
    }

    void ReadData()
    {
        List<Data> data = formListView.Read();
    }
    void AddData(Data data)
    {
        formListView.Add(data);
    }
}

public class FormListView
{
    public List<Data> Read()
    {
        // ...
    }
    public void Add(Data data)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

Change it for whatever class/struct you are using to hold the data you are wanting to pass to formListView

List

You don't have to use a List<T>, but it's a useful way of having a collection of whatever T is in one object. Clickety[^]

The only sane way to do this, is to set up delegates so that the code that decides the form needs filling, can call a method in the form to fill it with data.

two remarks on top of the fine answers you've got:

1. forms don't "run", they exist, and they may or may not be visible, have focus, etc.

2. "static" seldom is the solution; it is useful to create variables that exist only once per class instead of once per instance, e.g. when a class wants to count how many instances got created. Nothing else.

private void btnSend_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;

    txtEmail.Enabled = false;
    txtMessage.Enabled = false;
    btnSend.Enabled = false;
    btnClose.Enabled = false;

    if (radioSuggestion.Checked == true)
        email_subject = "Suggestion from (My System) user";
    else if (radioBug.Checked == true)
        email_subject = "Bug Reported by (My System) user";
    else
        email_subject = "Email from (My System) user";

    if (SendMail("myGmailAccount@gmail.com", "xxxxxxxxx", txtEmail.Text, "myHotMailAccount@hotmail.com", email_subject, txtMessage.Text))
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Message Sent.", "Email", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
        this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
        this.Close();
    }
    else
    {
        MessageBox.Show("unable to send your email!!", "Email", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
        txtEmail.Enabled = true;
        txtMessage.Enabled = true;
        btnSend.Enabled = true;
        btnClose.Enabled = true;
        this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
        return;
    }
}



public static bool SendMail(string gMailAccount, string password, string from, string to, string subject, string message)
{
    try
    {
        NetworkCredential loginInfo = new NetworkCredential(gMailAccount, password);
        MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
        msg.From = new MailAddress(from);
        msg.To.Add(new MailAddress(to));
        msg.Subject = subject;
        msg.Body = message;
        msg.IsBodyHtml = true;
        SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com");
        client.EnableSsl = true;
        client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
        client.Credentials = loginInfo;
        client.Send(msg);

        return true;
    }

Please use proper words in your answers. "u r" means nothing, similarly "c z" could be written by a monkey. If you expect the questioners to put their questions in clear English then the least you can do is answer in a similar vein! Try and act as if you are at least aspiring to professionalism.

Thanks for reformatting your code. The change in the From field is probably because Google's SMTP server is changing the email headers mid-stream. The delay could be almost anywhere. My guess is that you're trying to send a very large email. The SmtpClient.SendAsync might help you with that problem.
