I suggest you get a book on whatever technology it is you are using (the fact that you haven't said if these are web forms or win forms is concerning enough) and go through it to learn the basics and then feel free to ask specific questions about specific problems. You can't learn such a broad technology from scratch using questions on a forum.

Solution 1

Opening a form is easy:

C#

MyOtherForm f = new MyOtherForm();
if (f.ShowDialog() === DialogResult.OK)
   {
   string name = f.NameOfCustomer;
   ...
   }

And if you create a property on the second form, you can then access it from the first once the second closes.

Hi,

Firstly : You can add your current data to session and let that display on whatever form you require.

Secondly : You can use hidden fields to play with data.

Happy coding.!!!
