Solution 1

read Scope [^] of variable to undestand why you can't access varible inside your method from calling method. since you have return value, you can use that as below.

C#

string vehicleMake = RegSearch.GetTyreSize(regNo);
//use the return value from your method 
TextBox1.Text = vehicleMake;

Solution 2

Its obvious to get this error as you are using it going beyond its scope. You can use it inside GetTyreSize Method only.

Simply make it Global(not always a good approach) or return it (good approach) like:

C#

TextBox1.Text = RegSearch.GetTyreSize(regNo);

Hope it helps :)
