Question

CONTEXT: Basically I need to take the contents of a TextBox and assign it to my ListBox. The drawback is the two controls are in forms (windows) different.

The TextBox control is in the form 1 and the ListBox is in the form 2.

Now every time you write something in my TextBox (window1) I want the same content appears on a line of my ListBox (window2).

Every time I type something in the textbox, should be assigned to a new line in the ListBox so completely fill line by line.

SOME DETAILS: The form1, also contains a ListView, which has a column that is filled with the same TextBox that will be assigned to my ListBox in form2.

I would like some sugeriencias from you.

The application is developed in VB.Net, WPF application.

Some example or code?
many Thanks

Solution 1

You can call the windows forum that you need to add to from any forum by just calling its name.

Example Called From Main
Forum2.ListBox1.Add("ABC")

Example Called From Second Forum
Forum1.ListBox1.Add("ABC")

this does work I just tested it by adding items to a list box from a button from a different forum.
